I have heard thus: At one time the Buddha was living in Mount Kysarak, city of La-guest, with a great assembly of monks of one thousand two hundred and fifty people. At that time, Asathe, king of the country of Makati, wanting to conquer the kingdom of Bakki, thought to himself: "Though the kingdom is strong and the people are rich and powerful, it is not difficult to defeat them with my strength." . Then King Asathi sent the great brahmin minister Vusa: "Go to Mount Kysarak where the Blessed One is, pay respects in my name at the Blessed One's feet, and visit the Blessed One. Is your daily life comfortable, walking and standing healthy? Then again, the World-Honored One, the people of the Ba-kyi country were self-sufficient and powerful, the people were rich and powerful, and they refused to submit to me. I want to conquer them. Do not understand what the Buddha taught? If He taught you how, remember it well, don't forget it, tell me again what I heard. What the Tathagata says is never false." The great deity Vusa took his life, rode the treasure cart and went to Mount Kysara. At the place where he had to stop, he got out of the car, walked to the Blessed One's place, finished visiting, sat down to one side, and said to the Blessed One, "The king of the Majie kingdom, Asa-theha, bowed his head at the Buddha's feet, and bowed down to the Buddha. and respectfully ask him, is your daily life comfortable, is it healthy when you come and go?" He continued: "The people of the Ba-ki state are brave, the people are rich and powerful, and they do not submit to the king, so the king wants to conquer. Wouldn't the Blessed One teach anything?" At that time, Ananda was standing behind the Buddha holding a fan. The Buddha asked Ananda, "Have you heard that the people of Batqi often meet to discuss righteous matters?" Ananda replied, "I have heard." Buddha said to Ananda: "If it is like that, big and small will be in harmony, that country will be even more prosperous; the country will be safe for a long time, inviolable. “Ananda, have you heard that the people of the kingdom of Bakky, my king, get along with each other, respecting each other from above and below?” "I heard." "If that's the case, big and small will be in harmony, that country will be more prosperous and secure for a long time, inviolable." "Ananda, have you heard that the people of the Baku Kingdom respect the law, understand taboos, and are not rude?" "I heard." “Ananda, if it were to be like this, great and small would be in harmony, and that country would be more prosperous and stable for a long time, inviolable. “Hey Ananda! Have you heard that the people of Batqi are filial to their parents and obedient to their elders?" "I heard"." “If that were the case, Ananda, great and small would be in harmony, and that country would be more prosperous and secure for a long time, inviolable. “Hey Ananda! Have you heard that the people of Bat Ky often respect sects and ghosts and gods?" "I heard." “Hey Ananda, If that is the case, then large and small will be in harmony, that country will be more prosperous and stable for a long time, inviolable. "Ananda, have you heard that the people of the Batky nation keep their virginity, purity, and innocence, even in their playfulness and speech?" "I heard." “Ananda, if this is the case, then great and small will be harmonious, and that country will be more prosperous and stable for a long time, inviolable. “Ananda, have you heard that the people of the Bakkians worship ascetic monks, respect those who observe the precepts, and are supportive and not lazy?” "I heard." “If that were the case, Ananda, the country would be more prosperous and secure for a long time, inviolable. At that time, the great minister Wusha said to the Buddha: "If the people of that country do one thing, they still don't want to win over them, how much more than they have all seven things. Because the country is too busy, I would like to give up and return." Buddha said: "You should know the time." Vu-sa immediately got up and walked around the Buddha three times, then bowed and retreated. Not long after Vusara left, the Buddha said to Ananda: "You should order the monks living around the city of La-gue-ki to gather together in the lecture hall." Ananda obeyed the order to go to La-gue-ki city, gathered all the bhikkhus, finished the lecture hall, and said to the Buddha: "Venerable sir, the bhikkhus have gathered enough, hope that the Holy One knows the time." At that time, the Blessed One arose, went to the lecture hall, sat on the seat prepared, and said to the monks: "Bhikkhus, I will teach you the seven non-rotten dharmas. Teachers, listen, listen, think carefully.” The bhikkhus said to the Buddha: "Yes, venerable sir. We want to hear.” The Buddha said to the bhikkhus: "Monks, the seven non-rotten dharmas are: "1.

These six thoughts cause the growth of the Dharma without loss.” At that time, the Blessed One, after resting comfortably at Lagyu-chi, said to Ananda, "Teachers, get ready, I want to go to Bamboo Garden." Answer: “Yes, yes.” Then he prepared robes and bowls, accompanied by a large audience, the Blessed One followed the road from Ma-kiet to Truc Vien. After going to the lecture hall to sit, the Buddha taught the Bhikkhu-stilts about precepts, concentration, and wisdom; practice of attaining concentration, get great retribution; practice attaining wisdom, great retribution; cultivate a pure mind, be completely liberated, cut off all three cankers, or the canker of sex, the taint of existence, and the taint of ignorance. After being liberated, the knowledge of liberation arises, birth and death are over, the holy life is established, what needs to be done is done. no more reincarnation.” At that time, the Blessed One, having settled in the Bamboo Grove, said to Ananda, "Teachers, prepare yourselves, and go to the city of Palanga." Answer: “Yes, yes.” Then he prepared his robes and bowls, and accompanied by a large assembly of people, the Blessed One went from Makiet to the city of Balangfu and sat down at the base of the Palm tree. At that time, the Puritans there heard that the Buddha and the great assembly had come from afar to rest under the Palm Tree, and together they went out of the city, and from afar they saw the Blessed One sitting under the Palm Tree, with a righteous face, with all his senses. quiet, supremely gentle, like a great dragon, like water standing in the clear, without any filth, full of thirty-two good signs, eighty supreme dignified beauty. Seeing that, everyone was happy, went to the Buddha's place, bowed his head to the Buddha's feet, and then sat down to one side. The World-Honored One followed the class to speak the Dharma, to reveal, to teach, to benefit, to rejoice. The Puritans, hearing the Buddha speak the Dharma, immediately said to the Buddha, "We take refuge in the Buddha, take refuge in the Dharma, and take refuge in the Saints. May the World-Honored One graciously accept us as Upasakas. From now on, vow not to kill, not to steal, not to commit adultery, not to lie, not to drink alcohol. We will keep the precept never to forget. Tomorrow we will make offerings. Hoping that the Blessed One and the assembly would condescend to condescend." The Blessed One kept silent and accepted. The Thanh followers saw that the Buddha was silent and accepted, immediately got up and walked around the Buddha three times to make offerings and then withdrew. For the sake of the Tathagata, they built a big house, fixed the land, swept it, sprinkled water, burned incense, and decorated the seat. When the offerings were finished, they went to the Buddha and said, "The house is ready, I hope the Holy Spirit knows it's time." At that time, the World-Honored One got up, took the robe, took the bowl, and went with the assembly to the lecture hall. Arrive, After washing hands and feet, the Buddha sat in the middle, the monks sat on the left, the Thanh followers sat on the right. At that time, the World-Honored One said to the Puritans, "There are five things for every person who breaks the precepts. What is the year? "first. The demand for wealth is not satisfied. "2. Although there are profits, each day wears out. “3. No matter where you go, people don't respect you. “4. Bad news spread all over the world. “5. The body breaks down and falls into hell. “On the contrary, Clergymen, ordinary people who keep the precepts will have five merits. What is the year? "first. Whatever you ask for, you will get it. "2. Assets already existing are added forever without loss. “3. Everyone is loved everywhere. “4. The good news spread all over the world. “5. With the breakup of the body, the common destinies are reborn in the heavens.” At that time, it was midnight, the Buddha told the Puritans to return. The Thanh followers obeyed, went around the Buddha three times, then bowed and retreated. At that time, when the last night, the light had just dawned, the Blessed One went to a secluded place, with pure and penetrating celestial eyes, saw the great gods, each guarding his own land and houses, the loyal gods, the subordinates also ordained. owner of land and houses. The Blessed One immediately returned to the lecture hall and took his seat. Even though he knew, he still asked, "Ananda, who founded this city of Balangfu?" Ananda said to the Buddha, "This city was created by the great god Wusha to defend the kingdom of Ba-ki." The Buddha said to Ananda, "The person who created this city is in harmony with the will of heaven. When the night was over, the sky had just dawned, I went to a secluded place, with my heavenly eyes, I saw the Great Angels each guarding their own land and houses, the loyal servants and subordinates also guarding the land and houses. A-nan! Should know where the land and houses are guarded by the Great Angel, whoever lives there will have much peace; where the loyalists defend, the middle class lives; In the place where the deity is feng shui, the people live and merit more or less depends on that place. “Ananda, this is the place where sages live, merchants gather, and the law of the country is right and not false. This citadel is very good, revered everywhere, indestructible. In the future, if it is broken, it is only due to three things; one is being hit by a great water, two is being hit by a great fire, and thirdly, someone inside conspires with outsiders to destroy this city.” Meanwhile, the Puritans Balangfu spent the night making arrangements. At the right time, they came to the Buddha: "The house is ready, I hope the Holy Spirit knows that it is time. "At that time, the Thanh believers served and served the food with their own hands. After eating, use water to wash. Then they made a small seat in front of the Buddha. The Buddha pointed out that: "This place of yours is the place where the Wise Ones, most of the people who maintain the pure precepts and practice the holy life reside; Gods are happy to support. Then he prayed for them: “If you know respect, you will be respected by others. If you know how to serve, you will be served. Generosity, love, compassion, praise by the gods, and often reunited with good people, not with evil people." At that time, having finished teaching the Dharma, the Blessed One immediately left the place, surrounded by a large audience, and brought him back. The great deity Vusa followed the Buddha, thinking, "Today, as the recluse Gotama passes through this gate, let's call this gate the Gotama Gate." On the occasion of the river wharf that the Buddha crossed, he immediately named that place Cudam wharf. The Blessed One came out of the city of Paranfa and went to the riverbank. At that time, there were many people on the riverbank, among them some people used boats, some people used rafts, some people used ferry boats to cross the river. The Buddha and the assembly in just a moment, like an athlete stretching his arm, reached the other side of the river. After contemplating this meaning, the World-Honored One immediately said the chant: The Buddha is the Master of the Sea, the Dharma is the bridge to the river, The vehicle of the Mahayana, Bringing all gods and humans. Being a Self-Liberator, Crossing the river, becoming a Buddha-da. Causing all disciples, Liberation, to attain Nirvana. The World-Honored One again went from the country of Ba-kyi to the village of Cau-li to rest under a forest and told the monks: "There are four profound and wonderful dharmas: one is the holy world; the second is holy concentration; three is Holy Wisdom and four is Holy Liberation. It is a wonderful and wonderful Dharma that is difficult to understand, difficult to understand, but because you and I in the past, because we do not understand it, we are forever drifting in the same cycle of life and death.” Contemplating in that sense, the Buddha immediately taught the verse: Precepts, concentration, wisdom, liberation, Only Buddha distinguish clearly. Leaving the suffering of sentient beings, Causing an end to birth and death. Now the World-Honored One, after staying in the village of Kou-li, asked Ananda to go with him to Na-da village. Ananda obeyed, put on his robes, hugged his bowls, and followed the Buddha with the assembly, following the road from Ba-ki to Na-da and stopping at the Kien-myeon. At that time, Ananda, in a quiet place, thought quietly: "There are twelve lay followers in this village of Nada, namely Jagāla, Jālāngāra, Vgāda, and Jālatha. , Price-Long, Bada-Lou, Lady-Skull, Ta-Ba-Skull, Da-Lesanao, Da-Da-Thau, Da-Da-Thau -da-long passed away. Now do not know where they were born? Another fifty people passed away, and another five hundred people died, and now I don't know where they were born?" Having thought this through, Ananda left the place of serenity, went to the Blessed One, bowed his head to the Buddha's feet, sat down to one side, and said to the Buddha: "Lord, just now I was in a quiet place, thinking quietly. thought: This village of Nada has twelve lay people: Old-age-la etc., common life; another fifty people died, another five hundred people died; I don't know where they were born. May the Blessed One make it clear to you." Buddha said to Ananda: "The other twelve lay people are the old-age-la, etc., having cut off the end of the lower year, so they are destined to be born in heaven; they enter Nirvana there and never return to this world. The other fifty people died due to the removal of three endings;; lust, anger, thin delusion, attaining the fruit of Tu-da-ham, will return to this realm to end the root of suffering. As for the other five hundred people, their lives are due to the elimination of the three endings, the fruition of Tu-da-complete, no longer falling into evil beasts, the certainty of attaining the path, only returning to this realm seven times to end the root of suffering. “Ananda, if there is birth, there will be death, that is the common sense of life, nothing strange. If you see every person dead, wouldn't it be a nuisance to come and ask me that?" Ananda replied, "Yes, venerable sir, it is troublesome." Buddha said: "Ananda, now I will tell you about the Dharma respect so that the noble disciples know the place of birth; end all three evil ways, the results of Tu-da-complete, no more than seven generations will end the end of suffering; and can also tell it to others. “Hey Ananda! The Dharma respect is that the noble disciple has attained indestructible faith, joyfully believes that the Buddha is the Tathagata, the Unsurpassed First, the Perfectly Enlightened One, with the full ten virtues. Happy to believe that the Dharma is the true and wonderful Dharma, the Buddha said it himself, without the weather limit, teaching the way to Nirvana; practiced by the wise. Happy to believe that the Sangha are well-coordinated, have direct conduct without lying, and have attained enlightenment, harmony above and below, full dharma-body, or someone who is aiming for Tu-da-completed and obtained Tu-da results. -finished, some people are aiming for Tu-da-ham and getting the fruit of Tu-da-ham, some people are aiming for Ana-ham and get the fruit of Ana-ham, some people are aiming for A-la- drought and obtain Arahantship. Oh, four pairs of eight steps, They are sages and saints of the Tathagata, worthy of reverence, making fields of merit for the world. The sage's precepts are pure, not tainted, not chipped, not leaked, and are followed by wise men who have attained to the samadhi of samadhi. "Ananda, that is the respect of the Dharma, which enables the noble disciple to know the place of life and birth, to cut off the three evil paths, to attain Tu-da-complete, in no more than seven generations, to complete the end of the boundary of suffering; and can also tell others about it.” At that time, the Blessed One, after staying there, asked Ananda to go with him to the country of Visali. Ananda obeyed, took his robe, took his bowl, and accompanied the Blessed One with a large assembly of people, followed the road from Patti to Visali, and sat down at a tree to rest. At that time there was a prostitute named Amba-bale, having just heard that the Buddha and his disciples had come to Vaisali, sitting under a tree, immediately prepared a treasure cart, wanted to go to the Buddha's place to worship and worship. seems. When you haven't arrived yet, From a distance she saw the Blessed One with a righteous appearance, with extraordinary faculties, with perfect features, like the moon among the stars. She was very happy, got out of the car, walked to the Buddha, bowed her head, and sat to one side. Then the World-Honored One, according to the class, preached the Dharma, explained, taught, benefited, and rejoiced. After hearing the Buddha's words, she happily knelt down and said to the Buddha: "Starting today, I take refuge in the Three Jewels. I hope that the Buddha will grant me permission to become an Upasi in the True Dharma, and I will not kill, steal, commit adultery, lie, or drink alcohol in my whole life." Again he said to the Buddha: "I pray that the Blessed One and his disciples will accept my request tomorrow. And tonight, please stay in my garden." Then the Buddha silently accepted. She saw that the Buddha had silently accepted the word. She got up and walked around the Buddha three times, then bowed and returned. Not long after she left, The Buddha said to Ananda, "I will go with you to that garden." Answer: “Yes, yes.” The Buddha then left his seat, took the robe, took the bowl, and accompanied the one thousand two hundred and fifty disciples to that garden. At that time, the group of Lexa people in Vaisali, heard the Buddha come to rest in the garden of Amba-bale, they immediately won the splendid five-color jeweled chariots; there are people riding green chariots, green horses, wearing green hats and umbrellas; horses and chariots of five colors are like that. Then, the Lexas with uniforms, all five hundred people flocked to the Buddha. After saying goodbye to the Buddha, the Ambas-la woman came back and met their car in the middle of the road. At that time, her car was going very fast, together with their treasure car, they pulled together, causing the parasol to break, but still refused to get out of the way. The Lezars rebuked, "What do you mean by not getting out of the way for us, so that you can hit our car and break the parasol?" Amma replied, “Sir, I have asked Buddha to come to my house tomorrow for a birthday. I have to hurry back to prepare the offerings, so I have to go quickly, I can't avoid it." Leza's group immediately said to her: "Please wait. Let us ask first, we will give you a hundred thousand taels of gold.” She replied, "I have already requested it, I can't give it up." Leza's group continued: "We will give you sixteen times a hundred thousand taels of gold. Let us ask first.” She still refused: “I have already asked. Definitely can't do that.” Again the Lezars said, "We will give you half a country's treasure, so let us ask first." She replied, "If you give me the wealth of the whole country, I will not accept it. Why? Since the Buddha is currently in my garden, he has accepted my request first. It's done, it can't be given up." The Lezars folded their arms and lamented, saying: “This daughter has deprived us of our first blessing.” They went to the garden where Buddha was. When the Blessed One saw from afar that five hundred Lexas, with thousands of horses and carriages, blocking the road, he said to the bhikkhus: "You should know the devas when walking in the park. The decoration and decoration were not much different from that group of people. Bhikkhus, keep your mind at rest, keeping your posture well-rounded. How does a bhikkhu compose his own mind? A bhikkhu contemplating the body on the internal body, diligently not being lazy, remembering and not forgetting, eliminating greed and grief in the world. Contemplating the body on the external body., contemplating the internal and external body, .., except for greed and grief in life. Contemplation of life, contemplation of mind, and contemplation of the Dharma are the same. What is a full-fledged bhikkhu? Here, bhikkhus, when walking, you know that you are going, when you stop, you know that you are stopping, turning to look left and right, stretching, looking down, wearing robes, holding bowls, even eating, taking medicine, do not lose any doubt. Cleverly find a way to remove the heat, go to bed, lie down, sleep and wake up, talk or be quiet, do not let the mind be disturbed. This is called a bhikkhu full of majesty.” Then five hundred Lezahs went to the garden of Ambarella. Near the Buddha's place, get off the car and walk to, bow your head to the Buddha's feet, then retreat to one side. The Tathagata is on his seat, his unique light shining over the crowd, like the autumn moon; Like heaven and earth, pure and clean, without dust, the sun in the middle of nowhere shines only. Then, five hundred Lexas surrounded the Buddha's seat. At that time, in the midst of the assembly there was a Brahman named Tinh Ky, who got up from his seat, unbuttoned his right shoulder shirt, knelt down on his right knee, folded his hands toward the Buddha, and praised in verse: King Ma- Exhausted, Yang-old, To gain many benefits, Wearing armor armor jewels. Buddha is present in that country. Uy Duc Dong Tam Thien, Echoes like Snow Mountain. Like a blooming lotus, the scent is magical. Now see the light of the Buddha, Like the rising sun; Like the moon through the sky, Unobscured by the clouds. Likewise, the World-Honored One, Light illumines the whole world. Contemplating the wisdom of Tathagata Tathagata in the evening meets the torch; Bring bright eyes for life, Decide to eliminate doubts. Five hundred people from Leza, after hearing that verse, said to Tinh Ky, "Repeat it." Then the Tinh Ky in front of the Buddha repeated three times. After five hundred Leza heard the verse repeated, each one took off his precious robe and gave it to Tinh Ky. Tinh Ky then brought the treasure to offer the Tathagata. Buddha out of compassion should accept. At that time, the World-Honored One said to the Lexa people of Vaisali: "There are five treasures in this world that are difficult to obtain. What is the year? One is Tathagata, Chi Chan appearing in life is very difficult to obtain. Second, it is very difficult to obtain a person who can preach the Dharma of the Tathagata. The third is someone who can trust the solution that the Tathagata preaches, which is very difficult to obtain. Fourth, it is very difficult to obtain a person who can accomplish the Dharma that the Tathagata preaches. Five is the danger of being yoked and knowing how to respond, that kind of person is also very rare. Oh, the five treasures are hard to come by.” Five hundred people from Lexa, after listening to the Buddha's teachings, making benefits and joys, immediately said to the Buddha; "May the Blessed One and his disciples accept our request tomorrow." The Buddha said to the Lexas: "You have invited me. This is how I have been offered. The courtesan Amballe asked first." When the five hundred people of Lesa heard that the Ambasalya had requested the Buddha first, they all waved their hands and said, "We wanted to make offerings to the Tathagata, but now that woman has spread her arms over me. "." Then they left their seats, bowed their heads to the Buddha, walked around the Buddha three times, and then went to their respective homes. At that time, The female Ambas- les then prepared wonderful food to offer to the Buddha and Sangha. After eating, collect the bowls, clear the table and chairs. Then, with a golden vase in her hand, when she had finished offering water, she went to the Buddha and said: "Among the gardens in this city of Vaisali, mine is the best. Now I bring that garden as an offering to the Tathagata. May the Tathagata accept it out of compassion for me." The Buddha said to the prostitute: "You can offer this garden first to the Buddha and Chieu-di Sangha. Why? The gardens, the infirmary, the robes, the six things that the Tathagata possesses, even though the Ma, Shakyamuni, Brahma, and devas have great power, no one is able to accept such offerings." The courtesan received the teachings, then brought the garden to worship first the Buddha and Chieu-di Sangha. The Buddha, out of compassion for her, accepted it. Then he said the verse: Building towers, setting up viharas, Offering cool gardens; Boats to bring people; And for the whole family, guard; The field is empty for water and grass, That blessing increases day and night; People who have enough pure precepts will come to a good place. After that, the prostitute Amba-le-la brought a small bed to sit in front of the Buddha. Buddha according to the class of teaching, opening, teaching, making benefits, joy. He preached about giving, about precepts, about birth and heaven, about sensuality as the great calamity, uncleanness, impurity, afflictions as obstacles, renunciation as supreme. When the World-Honored One knew that her mind was pliable and peaceful, and that the hindrances were thin, and that it was easy to transform, like the Dharma of the Buddhas, he taught her about the Noble Truth of Suffering, the Noble Truth of Suffering, and the cessation of suffering. The Truth and Suffering of the Holy Noble Truth. At that time, the Ambas-la, with pure faith and faith, like a clean white silk that is easily dyed, right on her seat, away from the mundane, the dharma eye of all dharmas, seeing the dharma, attaining the dharma, decide the right position, no longer fall to the evil path, fearless achievement. She then said to the Buddha: "I now take refuge in the Buddha, take refuge in the Dharma, and take refuge in the Sangha, saying this three times. May the Tathagata accept me as an Upasi in the Dharma. From now on, for the rest of my life, I do not kill, do not steal, do not commit adultery, do not lie, do not drink alcohol." That woman, having received the five precepts from the Buddha, abandoned her previous habits, eliminated her defilements, left her seat, bowed to the Buddha, and then retired. At that time, the World-Honored One, staying at Vaishali, said to Ananda: "Get ready. I want to go to Truc Lam." Answer: “Yes, yes.” Then he prepared his robes and bowls, accompanied by a large group of people around the Blessed One, and followed the road from Ba-ki to Truc Lam. At that time there was a brahmin named Visada-da, hearing the Buddha and a large assembly come to this Truc Lam forest, he immediately thought to himself: "This recluse Gotama has a good reputation spread throughout the four directions, ten directions. full name, in the midst of gods, Shakyamuni, Brahma, Ma or Thien ma, ascetic, Brahmins, who testify for themselves, then preach the Dharma to others, with words in which the beginning, the middle, and the end are all righteous, the meaning is profound, and the holy life is complete. Such a True One, I should visit." Then the brahmin went out of the city and went to the Blessed One in the bamboo forest;; After saying hello, sit aside. The World-Honored One followed the class to teach him the Dharma, open it up, teach it, make it beneficial, and happy. After hearing this, he was delighted, so he invited the Blessed One and the assembly to come to the house to eat food tomorrow. Buddha silently accepted. The brahmin knew that he had accepted the invitation, stood up, circumambulated the Buddha three times, and then returned. On that very night, prepare the dishes. The next morning, when the time was right, he announced, "May the Holy Spirit know that the time has come." Then the Blessed One put on his robe, took his bowl, surrounded him with a large assembly, went to that house, sat down on the seat prepared. Then, Brahmins offered all kinds of delicious food to Buddha and Sangha. After eating, collecting bowls, washing with water, he brought a small bed to sit in front of Buddha. The World-Honored One said a chant for the Brahmin: If you bring food, clothing, and clothing to those who observe the precepts, they will reap great results. That's true friends, Faithful to each other; Go anywhere, Like a shadow in the picture. So sow good, Make salary in the next life. Blessing is the foundation, Sentient beings stay. Blessing is the guardian angel, The path is not dangerous. Live without accidents; Death is reborn. Then the World-Honored One said the wonderful Dharma to the Brahmins; open, instruct, make benefit, rejoice. Then he left his seat and left. At that time, in this locality, rice was precious and there was a famine, so it was difficult to obtain alms. The Buddha said to Ananda: "Call the bhikkhus present in this locality to gather in the auditorium. Ananda replied yes, then obeyed the Buddha's orders to call the monks near and far to gather in the auditorium. After all the people in this country had gathered, Ananda said to the Buddha, "The great assembly has gathered, and I hope that the Holy One knows the time." At that time, the Buddha left his seat, went to the lecture hall, sat on the seat prepared, and said to the bhikkhus: "This land is hungry, begging for food is difficult, you should divide into groups according to where you know them, Let's go to Vaisali and Viet Ky and live there so that we may not be deprived. I live here alone with Ananda." The bhikkhus obeyed the teaching and left. Only Buddha and Ananda stayed. Later, during the retreat, the Buddha's body became sick, and his whole body was in pain. The Buddha thought to himself, "I am sick now, but my disciples are not here. If I enter Nirvana, it is not appropriate. Therefore, let us strive to save our life by self-reliance." Then the Blessed One came out of the retreat and sat down in a cool place. When Ananda saw it, he rushed over and said to the Buddha, "Now I look at the face of the Blessed One, The disease seems to have subsided.” Again Ananda said: "The Blessed One is sick, my mind is afraid, my worries are tight, I am confused and I don't know where to go. But my breath had not ended, and I was still a little alert, I thought to myself: The Blessed One has not passed away immediately, the eyes of the world have not gone out, the Dharma has not been damaged, why does he not have anything to teach his disciples now? " The Buddha said to Ananda, "What else does the Sangha need from me? If someone says to himself: I maintain the Sangha, I take over the Sangha, then he should have a word to teach the Sangha. The Tathagata does not say: I maintain the Sangha. I take over the Sangha. So why do I have to have a teaching for the Sangha? Ananda, the dharmas I have taught, both inside and out, have been completed. I never claim to have knowledge of communication. I am old now, eighty years old. Just like an old carriage, thanks to a repair vehicle, it is possible to get there. My body too, thanks to the means of means still slightly maintain the lifespan, self-effort to endure this pain. Without contemplating all thoughts, when entering non-perception concentration, the body is safe, there is no brain damage. Therefore, Ananda, light yourself; Light up the Dharma, don't light it elsewhere. Take refuge in yourself, take refuge in the Dharma, and do not rely on any other place. What is Light yourself, light the dharma, don't light it elsewhere; take refuge in yourself, take refuge in the dharma, don't take refuge elsewhere? Ananda, a bhikkhu, contemplating the internal body, is diligent, not lazy, remembers and does not forget, abandons covetousness and grief in the world. Body shop; contemplating the internal and external body, diligently not being lazy, remembering and not forgetting, eliminating greed and grief in life. Contemplation of life, contemplation of mind, and contemplation of Dharma are the same. This, Ananda, is called Light your own light, light up the dharma, don't light it elsewhere. Rely on yourself, Take refuge in the Dharma, not elsewhere.. Ananda, after I pass away, if anyone is able to practice this Dharma, that person is my true disciple, the most learned one." The Buddha told Ananda, let's go to the Gia-Phara tower. Ananda obeyed. Then the Tathagata got up, took the robe, took the bowl, and went under a tree, and said to Ananda, "Spread out your seat. My back hurts, I want to stay here." Anna replied, “Yes.” Spread the seats, and after the Tathagata had sat down, Ananda made a small seat to sit in front of the Buddha. The Buddha said: "Ananda, those who practice the Four Noble Truths, practice a lot, often memorize them without forgetting, depending on their will, they can prolong their life for more than one kalpa. Ananda, the Buddha has practiced much of the Four Divine Consequences, focused on not forgetting, depending on his will, the Tathagata can live for more than one kalpa, in order to eliminate the darkness of the world, bring many benefits, both gods and humans are blessed. safe. ' At that time Ananda was silent and did not answer. The Buddha said this three times, Ananda also remained silent and did not answer. At that time, Ananda was possessed by a demon, and his confusion was not obvious. The Buddha appeared three times, but Ananda did not know and requested. Buddha told Ananda: "Know the time". Ananda obeyed the Buddha's will, stood up, bowed to the Buddha, and then retired. Ananda walked not far from the Buddha, sat under a tree, calmly thinking. Within a short period of time, Ba-week's ghost came and said to the Buddha: "The Buddha's intention is not to enter Nirvana early. Now is the time, Buddha should quickly perish." Buddha told the three-week ghost: "Stop! Stop it! We know the time. The Tathagata has not yet entered Nirvana, because he is still waiting for the meeting of my Bhikkhu-stilts. There are people who can control themselves, are brave, not afraid, have reached a safe place, have achieved their goals, are the guides of mankind, preaching the scriptures, displaying the meaning, If there are differences, they can be subdued by the Dharma, and by divine transformation, they can prove themselves. Such disciples are not enough. There are also the bhikkhunis, the Upasakas, and the Upasakas, all the same, not yet gathered. Now what is needed is to develop the holy life, to spread the enlightenment mind, so that all gods and humans can see the miracle. .” At that time, Ma Ba-week said to the Buddha: "Once upon a time, at Upalāla by the Nile River, under the tree of the Adubani-kusala, when the Buddha had just attained Enlightenment, I went to the Tathagata and advised him to enter Nirvana, saying: Now is the right time, you must quickly enter Nirvana. At that time, the Tathagata replied to me: Stop it, three weeks. We know the time. The Tathagata has not yet entered Nirvana, because he is still waiting for my disciples to gather in large numbers, etc., until gods and humans see the miraculous transformation, Only then did I enter Nirvana. Now is the time, why didn't you enter Nirvana?" Buddha said: "Stop it, three weeks. Buddha knows the time. We won't be around much longer. After three months, in the native land of Cuthina Kiet, Sala garden, between the two trees, I will perish.” At that time, Ma Ba-week thought that the Buddha would not lie and would definitely pass away, so he was overjoyed and suddenly disappeared. Not long after Ma left, the Buddha was at the Gia-Brahma tower, with the intention of samadhi, discharging his life. At that moment, the great earthquake shook. The people of the country were all terrified, their hairs standing on end. The Buddha emits a light that shines endlessly, where the darkness is also illuminated, and everyone can see each other. At that time, the Blessed One spoke in verse and recited: "Of the two conditioned formations, I now give up the conditioned. Inner samadhi Samadhi Samadhi Samadhi Like a bird out of an egg. At that time the sage Ananda was frightened, his hair stood up, hurriedly went to the Buddha, bowed his head to the feet of the Buddha, then stood aside, said to the Buddha: "Strange, World Honored One! What causes the earth to shake?" The Buddha told Ananda, "In the world, there are eight causes for the earth to vibrate. What are eight? Land on water. Water y on the wind. The wind is in the air. In the void there is a great wind that sometimes rises on its own, then a large mass of water is stirred. When the great mass of water was stirred, the whole earth trembled. That is the first reason. “Again, Ananda, there are times when a monk or a bhikkhuni attains enlightenment, or the great deity, contemplating the nature of water much, contemplating the nature of earth little, wants to test his own ability, when The whole earth trembled. That is the second reason. “Again, Ananda, when the Bodhisatta descended from Tushita heaven into his mother's womb, concentrating on his mindfulness without distraction, then the whole earth was shaken. That is the third reason. “Again, Ananda, When the Bodhisatta came out of his mother's womb, was born from his right hip, and focused on not scattering, then the whole earth trembled. That is the fourth cause. “Again, Ananda, when the Bodhisatta had just attained unsurpassed enlightenment, at that moment the whole earth was shaken. That is the fifth cause. “Again, Ananda, when the Buddha had just attained enlightenment and turned the Unsurpassed Law Wheel, but none of them was able to be turned by either Ma or the Devas, ascetics, or Brahmins, then the whole earth was shaken. That is the sixth cause. "Again, Ananda, when the Buddha's precepts were almost completed, and his mind was not scattered, the Buddha gave up his life practice, then the whole earth trembled. That is the seventh cause. “Again, Ananda, when the Tathagata entered Nirvana in Nirvana without residue, then the whole earth was shaken. That is the eighth cause. "Because of these eight causes the earth vibrates." Then the Blessed One spoke the verse: The Most Exalted Duality, The great recluse enlightened the world. Ananda asked: What causes the earth to shake? The Tathagata interprets the sound, Voice like a bird Calang: "I say, listen, Cause the earth vibrates. Land is human medicine on water, Water is human medicine on wind. If the wind blows into the void, the Earth therefore shakes violently. Bhikkhus, Bhikkhunis, Wanting to test supernatural powers, Mountains, seas, hundreds of plants and trees, All the earth vibrates. Like, Pham, the gods, The will of the earth vibrates, The mountains and seas of ghosts and gods, The earth all vibrates. Bodhisattvas, Two Noble Truths, One Hundred Generals of Merit is enough. When they were in their mother's womb, the earth trembled. Ten months in the mother's womb, Like a dragon lying on a mattress; From the waist of existence arises, At that time the earth vibrates. Buddha when he was still a young man Destroy the ropes of history, Achieve the supreme Victory; Then the earth shook. Becoming a Buddha, turning the wheel of Dharma, Staying in the wild forest; Dao force subdues ghosts, At that time the earth vibrates. Heavenly ma many times, Advise Buddha to enter Nirvana; When the Buddha gave up his life, At that time the earth trembled. Great Master, Supreme, Immortal, not reborn, Entering death, motionless; Then the earth shook. Pure eye, say the conditions, Earth shakes because of eight things. Because of this and other, Then the earth trembles." II Buddha said to Ananda: "O Ananda! There are eight groups in life: one is the Slaughter family; two are the Brahmins; three are us Laymen; four are the Samana; five are the Four Heavenly Kings; six are them Dao-benefit; seven are them Ma; eight are the Brahmas. “I remember in the past, I used to go back and forth among the Saslits, talking with them, sitting and standing, I don't know how many times. Through the power of diligent meditation, wherever I appear, whenever they have beauty, My beauty is more beautiful. If they have a good voice, then My language is better. They left Me and went, but I did not leave them. What they can say, I can say too. What they can't say, I can also say. I often preach the Dharma to them, show them, teach them, benefit them, rejoice, and then disappear from that place, but they don't know whether I am a god or a human. Until then, I used to go back and forth among the Brahmas countless times to preach the Dharma to them, and they didn't even know who I was." "Ananda said to the Buddha, "World-Honored One, it is wonderful, unprecedented, to be able to achieve such a feat." The Buddha said, "The Dharma has never been so wonderful, Ananda, it's so wonderful, it's so rare, only the Tathagata can achieve it." Buddha again told Ananda: "The Tathagata can know the arising, the existence and the disappearance of feeling; know the arising, existence and disappearance of perception; the arising, existence and disappearance of contemplation. That is truly the unprecedented miracle of the Tathagata, you should keep it in mind." At that time the World-Honored One asked Ananda to go to the Perfume Tower together. Then he went to a tree and sat down and told Ananda to gather all the monks present around the Perfume tower to the lecture hall. Ananda obeyed the Buddha's instructions, gathered all, and then said to the Buddha: "The great assembly has gathered. May the Holy Spirit know the time." The Blessed One went to the lecture hall and sat on the seat prepared. Then the World-Honored One said to the bhikkhus: "You should know that I have personally realized by the following dharmas and attained Perfect Enlightenment. These are the Four Foundations of Mindfulness, the Four Minds, the Four Divine Consequences, the Four Meditations, the Five Senses, the Five Powers, the Seven Enlightenment Minds, and the Eight Noble Paths. You should practice together in that dharma, be in harmony, respect each other, and do not give birth to quarrels. Together with the same teacher, let's be in harmony like water and milk. In my Dharma, study diligently, enlighten each other, and rejoice together. "You should know, bhikkhus, that I have realized by myself from these things, and publish it here. That is, the Contracting Business, the Night Sutra, the Life Sutra, the Verse Sutra, the Dhammapada Sutra, the Sagha Sutra, the Predestined Sutra, the Tian Ban Sutra, the Quang Sutra, the Tang Dynasty Sutra, the Evidence Sutra, and the Great Teaching Sutra. You should keep it in mind, analyze according to your ability, and practice according to your ability. Why? Soon the Tathagata, after three months, will enter Nirvana." The bhikkhus, after hearing this, were very surprised, bewildered, threw themselves to the ground, and cried out: "How quickly, the World-Honored One! How painful, the eyes of the world are about to go out! From now on we are lost forever!" Or there are bhikkhus struggling with sorrow and crying, rolling around and complaining, unable to control themselves, like a snake broken into two pieces, rolling around, unable to go back. Buddha said: "Bhikkhus, do not embrace such compassion. From heaven and earth to people and animals, Nothing is born without ending. It is impossible for conditioned dharmas to not be altered. I have taught before that love is impermanent, with union and separation. This body is not mine, this life won't last long." At that time the World-Honored One said the verse: I am now at peace. Make this clear. Let them harmonize. I am old now, The job is done, Now I should discharge my life. Mindfulness does not let loose, Bhikkhu-stilts enough; Capture the intention, Protect your mind. In my Dharma, Who does not let loose, Will end the root of suffering, From birth, old age and death. The Buddha again said to the bhikkhus: "The reason I am now advising you in this way is because the three-week deity, just now, came to ask me, saying: The Buddha's will is not to enter Nirvana soon. Now is the time, please He quickly perish. I told the three-week ghost: Stop it! Stop it! We know the time. We are still waiting for our Bhikkhu-stilts to meet. until, so that all gods and humans can see the miracle. At that time, Ba-week's mama said to me: Once upon a time, at U-Pla-la, by the Nile River, under the tree of Aduba-nikulu, the Buddha was at the time of his enlightenment. Enlightenment, I told him: The Buddha's will does not want early Nirvana. Now is the right time. Please quickly enter Nirvana. At that time, the Tathagata replied to me: Stop it, three weeks. We know the time. The Tathagata has not yet entered Nirvana, because he is still waiting for my disciples to gather in large numbers, etc., until gods and humans see the miraculous transformation, then I will enter Nirvana. Now here, the disciples of the Tathagata have met. Until, gods and humans can see the miraculous transformation. Now is the time, why didn't he enter Nirvana? I said: Stop it, hey, three weeks. Buddha knows the time. We won't be around much longer. After three months, I will perish. At that time, Ma Ba-week thought that the Buddha would not lie, so he was overjoyed and suddenly disappeared. Not long after Ma left, in the place of the Gia-Bà-la tower, with the intention of samadhi samadhi, I discharge my life. At that moment, the great earthquake shook. The gods and men were all terrified, their hairs standing on end. The Buddha emits a light that shines endlessly, where the darkness is also illuminated, and everyone can see each other. At that time I said in verse and recited that: Of the two non-forming formations, I now release the conditioned. Internal specialized samadhi-samadhi concentration Like a bird out of an egg. At that time, the sage Ananda arose, spread his robe over his right shoulder, knelt down close to the ground, clasped his hands together, and said to the Buddha: "I pray to the Blessed One, for one kalpa, don't rush to extinction, out of compassion for them. born, to benefit gods and humans.” The Blessed One was silent and did not answer. Ananda asked three times. Buddha said: "Ananda! Do you believe in the Tathagata's Way of Right Enlightenment?" Ananda replied: "Yes yes, I am sure what the Buddha said." Buddha said, "If you believe, why bother me three times? You have heard directly from the Buddha, directly received from the Buddha that those who have practiced the four divine powers, practiced many times, and dedicated their mindfulness without forgetting, can prolong their life for one kalpa at will or at will. one more lifetime. The Buddha practiced the four divine powers, practiced many times, focused on not forgetting, depending on his will, he could live for more than one life, in order to eliminate the darkness of the world, benefit many people, and bring peace to heaven and people. . Why did you not ask the Tathagata not to pass away at that time? Listen for the second time, still possible. Until the third time, you also do not encourage the Tathagata to live one more life or one more life, in order to eliminate darkness for the world, to bring benefits and peace to the gods. Now that you say, isn't it too late? I appeared three times, you were silent three times. Why didn't you tell me at that time that the Tathagata should live one more life or one more life, in order to eliminate darkness for the world, for the benefit of many people, so that gods and humans can be at peace? “Stop it, Ananda, now that I have given up my life, I have abandoned it, I have already uprooted it. If you want the Tathagata to contradict what you have said, there will never be such a case. If a noble person spits food on the ground, can they still eat it?" Ananda replied, “No.” "Now, the Tathagata, too, has abandoned it, has spit it out, and no longer eats it by himself." The Buddha asked Ananda to go to Am-bra village together. Ananda arranged his robes to hold his bowl, and accompanied the Blessed One with a large assembly of people, by following the road from Patti to Ambara. When going to Am-bra village, to a tree hill, the Buddha taught the Bhikkhu-stilts about precepts, concentration, and wisdom; practice of attaining concentration, get great retribution; practice attaining wisdom, great retribution; cultivate a pure mind, be completely liberated, get rid of the three cankers or the lust, illegal possessions and illegal ignorance. After being liberated, the knowledge of liberation arises, birth and death are over, the holy life is established, what needs to be done is done, there is no need to be reborn again.” At that time, after taking refuge in Am-bala village, the Blessed One said to Ananda again: "Get ready to go to Champa village, Kien Do village, Baleba village and so on. into Phu-di . Ananda replied, "Yes." Then he arranged his robes to hold his bowl, followed the Blessed One with a large assembly of people, followed the road from Baji to other cities, to the north of the city of Pu-di, and stayed in the forest of Thisara. The Buddha said to the bhikkhus: "I will tell you the Four Great Teachings. Listen, think carefully.” The bhikkhus said to the Buddha: "Yes, venerable sir! We want to hear.” Buddha said: "What are those four dharmas? If any bhikkhu should say thus: 'Friends, I used to live in that village, in that city, in that country, personally follow the Buddha to hear and receive this teaching. Hearing this, you shouldn't be in a hurry to believe it, nor should you refute it. Let's follow the sutras and consider the truth. Depending on the Law, depending on the Dharma, you can see the root and the top. If you find that what he said is not in accordance with the Sutras, the Laws, or the Dharma, you should say to the other person: The Buddha did not say such things, did you remember wrongly? Because we depend on the Kinh, the Law, and the Dharma. But what you just said is contrary to the Dharma. So, sage, you should not accept and uphold it and do not tell it to others. Let's give it up. On the contrary, if you consider that the other word is right in the Sutras, in the Law, in the Dharma, then tell the other person that: What you have just said is exactly what the Buddha said. Because we depend on the Kinh, the Law, and the Dharma. But what you just said is in accordance with the Dharma. So Sage! Be careful to uphold and extend to the listeners, do not give up. That is the first great spell. "Again, if any bhikkhu should say thus: 'Friends, I have lived in that village, in that city, in that country, and have personally heard from the Sangha, in harmony with the learned veterans, and received a long life. This Dharma, This Law, This Teaching. Hearing this, you shouldn't be in a hurry to believe it, nor should you refute it. Let's follow the sutras and consider the truth. Depending on the Law, depending on the Dharma, you can see the root and the top. If you find that these words are not in accordance with the Sutras, the Laws, or the Dharma, you should say to the other person: The Buddha did not say such things, did you hear or remember wrongly? Because we depend on the Kinh, the Law, and the Dharma. But what you just said is contrary to the Dharma. So, sage, you should not accept and uphold it and do not tell it to others. Let's give it up. On the contrary, if we consider that the word is correct in the Sutra, If you are right with the Law and the Dharma, then tell the other person: What you just said is exactly what the Buddha said. Because we depend on the Kinh, the Law, and the Dharma. But what you just said is in accordance with the Dharma. So Sage! Be careful to uphold and extend to the listeners, do not give up. That is the second great spell. "Again, if any bhikkhu should come and say thus: 'Friends, I have lived in that village, in that city, in that country, and have personally heard from many bhikkhus who uphold the Dharma and uphold the Law. , uphold the law of doubt, receive this Dharma, this Law, this teaching. Hearing that, you should not believe it, nor should you reject it. Let's follow the sutras and consider the truth. Depending on the Law, depending on the Dharma, you can see the root and the top. If you see that what he said is not in accordance with the Sutras, the Laws, or the Dharma, you should say to the other person: The Buddha did not say such things, you have heard. remember wrong?

Because we depend on the Kinh, the Law, and the Dharma. But what you just said is in accordance with the Dharma. So Sage! Be careful to uphold and extend to the listeners, do not give up. That is the third great dharma. "Again, if any bhikkhu should come and say thus: 'Friends, I used to live in that village, in that city, in that country, personally from a certain bhikkhu who was a Dharma-keeper, a rule-keeper, Uphold the Law of Doubt, receive this Dharma. If you hear that, you won't believe it, nor should you refute it. Let's follow the sutras and consider the truth. Depending on the Law, depending on the Dharma, you can see the root and the top. If you find that what he said is not in accordance with the Sutras, the Laws, or the Dharma, you should say to the other person: The Buddha did not say such things, did you remember wrongly?

Because we depend on the Kinh, the Law, and the Dharma. But what you just said is in accordance with the Dharma. So Sage! Be careful to uphold and extend to the listeners, do not give up. That is the fourth great dharma.” At that time, the World-Honored One, after staying in the city of Fudi, asked Ananda to go together to Baba. Ananda replied, "Yes." Then he arranged his robes to hold his bowl, followed the Blessed One with a large assembly of people, followed the Malla path to the Sera-head garden, to Baba city. Here, the son of a worker named Chau-na heard that the Buddha had come from that Malala to this city, immediately dressed neatly, went to the Buddha, bowed his head to the Buddha's feet, and sat down to one side. Buddha according to the class of sermons for Chau-na, showing, teaching, making benefits happy. Chau-na, after hearing the news, was happy, and invited the Buddha to come to the house tomorrow to make offerings. The Buddha kept silent and accepted. Chau-na knew that the Buddha had accepted the invitation, immediately stood up to pay respects to the Buddha, then retreated. That very night he prepared the food. Tomorrow, at the appropriate time, he returned to visit the Buddha. At that time, the Blessed One, wearing a robe, took a bowl, and a large entourage of retinues came to his house, sat down on the seat prepared. After the Buddha and the assembly were seated, Chau-na brought food to the Buddha and the Sangha. He cooked separately a kind of Chien-dan mushroom, a rare and precious food, and offered it to the Buddha. The Buddha told Chau-na not to bring that mushroom to the Sangha to eat. Chau-na obeyed, not daring to prepare for the Sangha. At that time, in a large assembly of monks, there was an old monk, who left home in the late afternoon, right on a platter, using leftovers to take. Chau-na, after seeing that the Sangha had finished their life span, put away their bowls and washed them with water, immediately approached the Buddha and asked in verse: Please ask the Great Saint Tri, the Supremely Enlightened One: How many sages are there in life? subject, Skilled in taming? The Buddha replied with a verse: According to you just asked, There are four classes of Sa-Mons, the direction is not the same. You should realize: One, practice the path of victory; Second, good at teaching the doctrine; Three, medical ethics live; Four, defile the way. Why call the enemy victory? Why are you good at talking about morality? Why do medical practices? Why do unclean religion? Breaking the thorns of love, Determined to enter Nirvana; Going beyond the path of God, Is practicing the path of victory. Clever understanding of the first meaning Preaching without impurity, Benevolently dispel doubts, Is a class of skillful preachers. Skillfully present the syntax of Naughty Way that feeds on, Far away from the realm of no-nonsense; It is a medical life. In the heart of evil, Outside like pure tuong. Deception is not sincere, Is the class that defiles the religion. Called stars include good and evil, Pure, impure mixed. The exterior is beautiful, Like gold-plated copper, ordinary people see it immediately and say: "It is a holy disciple, the others are not equal, I do not give up my faith". The keeper of the mass, In the snob outside the bar. Concealing evil, Ky is truly licentious. Do not look at the appearance, Hastened to the body of the glass. Concealing evil, Ky is truly licentious. Then Chau-na took a small bed and sat down in front of the Buddha. Buddha in turn preached the Dharma, showed, encouraged, benefited, and rejoiced. Then, with a large crowd of followers, the Buddha returned. As soon as he reached the middle of the road, the Buddha stopped under a tree and said to Ananda, "I have a backache, please spread your seat." Ananda replied yes, then spread out the seat. Buddha rest. Then Ananda again spread out a lower seat and sat in front of the Buddha. The Buddha asked Ananda: "Just now, did you see that Chau-na had any regrets? If there is regret, then where is it?" Ananda replied, "Chau-na has just made such offerings to the Buddha, and there is no benefit at all. Why? Because after the Tathagata lived in his house, he entered Nirvana!" Buddha said: "Ananda, don't say such things, don't say such things! At present, Chau-na enjoys great benefits, enjoys a long life, gains beauty, gains strength, gains a good reputation, gains a lot of wealth, and dies going to heaven. Ask for anything. Why so? Because people make offerings to the Buddha at the beginning of enlightenment and those who make offerings to the Buddha at the time of Nirvana, the merits of both sides are equal. Go and tell Chau-na: I have heard directly from the Buddha, received directly from the Buddha, that Chau-na has received great benefits from making offerings to the Buddha and great retribution." Ananda obeyed, went to Chau-na, and said: "I have heard directly from the Buddha, received directly from the Buddha, that Chau-na has received great benefits and great retribution through his merits of making offerings to the Buddha. . Why so? Because those who make offerings to the Buddha at the time of enlightenment and those who make offerings to the Buddha at the time of Nirvana, the merits of both sides are equal. Long live the Chau-na family, Just heard this saying: The Tathagata's illness is getting worse, His life is about to end, Although he eats Chien-dan mushrooms, the disease is still increasing. Embracing the disease and going on the road, Reached to the city of Go-thi. At that time, The Blessed One got up, walked a short distance forward, came under a tree, and said to Ananda again, "My back hurts, please fix my seat." Ananda replied, “Yes.” Then take a seat. The Tathagata rests. Ananda bowed to the Buddha's feet, then sat to one side. At that time, there was an Arahant disciple named Phuc Quy, who was going from the city of Cuthina Kiet, aiming for Ba Ba city, when he had just reached the middle of the road, he saw the Buddha at the foot of a tree. upright posture, pure roots, gentle mind in the scene of absolute extinction, like a great dragon, like a lake standing in the water without any irritation. After seeing it, he generated goodwill and joy, approached the Buddha, bowed down, sat down to one side, and said to the Buddha: "Venerable Buddha, a monk who lives in a pure place, prefers leisure. , how rare, even though a convoy of five hundred vehicles passed by without knowing it! My teacher once sat in meditation under a tree by the side of the road in the area between the two cities of Cau-thi and Ba-ba. At that time, a convoy of five hundred carriages passed by. The sound of traffic rumbled. Although he was awake, he could not hear. Then someone came and asked: Did you see the convoy that just passed here? Answer: Can't see. Asked again: Did you hear? Answer: Didn't listen. Again: Are you here or somewhere else? Answer: Here. Again asked: Are you awake or in a coma? Answer: Province. Again: Are you awake or asleep? Answer: No sleep. The other thought: This is really rare. Such a new monastic expert. Even though the car was loud, I was still awake, but I was still awake. Then I said to my teacher: Just five hundred carriages have passed through this road, the sound of the car is shaking, but I can't hear it, where can I hear the story? other! Then the other person did the ceremony, happily saying goodbye.” The Buddha said: "O Blessed One! Now I ask you. Feel free to answer. The convoy passed by, but awake but did not hear and thunder and earthquake resounded, but awake but did not listen. Which of the two is more difficult? Phuc said, "The sound of thousands of cars is not comparable to the sound of thunder. It is easy not to hear the car, but not to hear the thunder is very difficult.” The Buddha said, "Fuku, I was once staying at a ashlar in the village of Aviet, at that time a strange cloud arose, and then the thunder roared violently, killing all four buffaloes and two his brothers plowed, the world was crowded. At that time I was coming out of the ashram, walking leisurely. A man from the other crowd walked up to Me, with his head bowed to his feet, and followed Me in walking. Even though I know, I still ask: What is that crowd gathering for? The man then asked Me again: Where have you been, awake or asleep? I answer: Here, non-sleeping. The other person praised for being rare, had not seen anyone attaining concentration like Buddha; Thunder and lightning resounded throughout heaven and earth, but I was alone, awake, but not aware. Then he said to the Buddha: Just now, there was a strange cloud rising up, and then there was a loud thunderclap that killed all four buffaloes and two plowmen. The crowd gathered for that reason. That person is happy in his heart, immediately gets Dharma joy, bows to the Buddha, and then retires. At that time, Phuc Quy was wearing two yellow cloths, worth a hundred thousand, got up from his seat, knelt down, folded his hands and said to the Buddha: "Now, I bring this cloth to the Blessed One. May the Blessed One receive life." Buddha said to Phuc Quy: "You leave one for me and one for Ananda." Blessings obey. One for the Buddha, one for Ananda. Buddha loved him so he accepted. The Blessed One bowed down to the Buddha and sat down to one side. Buddha in turn preached to him, showing, teaching, to benefit, to rejoice. He preached on giving, upholding the precepts, being born in heaven, and lusting as the great calamity, uncleanness, uncleanness, defilements and defilements being the hindrance of the path, and the supreme victory. When the Buddha knew that the mind of the Blessed One was joyful, pliable, not covered by the hindrances, it was easy to civilize; Like the Buddha's usual dharma, he preached to the Blessed One on the Noble Truth of Suffering, the Origin of Suffering, the Cessation of Suffering, and the Origin of the Noble Truth of Suffering. Blessed and precious immediately give rise to pure faith, like a clean cloth that is easy to stain, right on the seat, away from the dust, giving rise to the dharma eye, seeing the dharma, witnessing the dharma, settling in and deciding the right nature, no longer Having fallen from the evil path, having achieved no fear, he said to the Buddha: "I now take refuge in the Buddha, the Dharma, and the Sangha. May the Blessed One accept me as an Upasaka in the Dharma. From now on for the rest of my life I vow not to kill, not to steal, not to commit adultery, not to lie, not to drink alcohol. May the Blessed One recognize me as an Upasaka in the Dharma." Again, he said to the Buddha: "Whenever the Buddha comes to teach in Baba city, please condescend him to come to my poor house. Because I want to bring all the food ready to sit, clothes, medicine available in the house to offer to the Blessed One. If the Blessed One receives a life span, my family will be at peace." Buddha said: "You are very right." Then the World-Honored One spoke the Dharma for the Blessed One; show, teach, make benefits, rejoice. Blessed are you, bowing to the Buddha and then leaving. Not long after, Ananda brought his golden cloth to the Buddha. The Buddha was received by loving-kindness and put on himself. At that time, the World-Honored One appeared with a serene appearance, resplendent splendor, pure senses, and joyful countenance. Ananda saw it and silently thought: "I have been serving the Buddha for twenty-five years and have never seen the Buddha with such a bright face as today." Then he stood up, knelt on the ground, folded his hands and asked the Buddha: "Since I have been serving the Buddha, it has been twenty-five years since I have seen the Buddha's face like today. Don't understand why? I hope to hear the Buddha's will." The Buddha told Ananda: "There are two reasons why the Tathagata's face is different from normal times: one is when the Buddha attains Perfect Enlightenment, and second, when the Buddha gives up his life span and is about to enter Nirvana. Ananda, because of these two conditions, the appearance is different." Then the Blessed One said the chant: The robe is bright yellow and cheerful, Smooth, soft, very clean, Blessed and precious to the Blessed One, The light is as white as snow. The Buddha said, "Ananda, I am thirsty. I want to drink water. Go get some water and bring it here." Ananda said, "Just now, five hundred chariots crossed a section of the river, making the water cloudy. Can only be used to wash feet, not drinkable.” Buddha said it three times. Ananda said, "Right now, only the Koun River, not far from here, has cool, clear water. Drinking or bathing is fine.” At that time, there was a deity in Snow Mountain, who devoted himself to believing in Buddhism, took a bowl of precious and pure water with eight merits and brought it to the Buddha. The Buddha took pity on his life and read the chant: Buddha in eight syllables, Tell Ananda to get water: I was thirsty, now I want to drink. Finished drinking until Qui-thi. Warm, mellow, gentle, Everyone is happy to hear. Serving the Buddha on both sides, he immediately said to the Blessed One: Having only five hundred chariots, Wading the river to the other side, Having turbid the water, Drinking must not be possible. The Cau-luu River is not far, The water is good, very cool; Can get drinking water, Can also take a bath. Snow mountain has ghosts and spirits, Bring water to the Tathagata. After drinking, mighty brave. The Lion walks. That water is inhabited by dragons, It is clean and not murky. The face of the saint is like Snow Mountain. Thoroughly pass through the Cau Ton. Then the Blessed One went to the Koun River, drank water and washed it, and went with the assembly again. In the middle of the road, the Buddha stopped under a tree and told Chau-na: "You take the Sangha-le's robe and fold it in half and spread it out for me to lie on. I have back pain. I want to stay here for a while.” Chau-na obeyed, finished spreading the place, the Buddha sat on it. Chau-na bowed to the Buddha, then sat down to one side and said, "I want to enter Nirvana. I want to enter Nirvana.” Buddha said: "You should know the right time." Chau-na immediately entered Nirvana in front of the Buddha. The Buddha then said the chant: Buddha came to the river of Cu Ton, In the cool, not murky. The Sovereign entered the water, Washed, went to the other shore. The head of the assembly, Sai ordered Chau-na: I am tired now, You spread the crouching equipment quickly. Chau-na immediately obeyed, Fourfold and spread. The Tathagata had rested Chau-na sitting in front. Immediately, the Blessed One said: I want to enter Nirvana, In a place where there is neither love nor hate. I now go there; The sea of ​​immeasurable merit. The Conqueror replied: Your duty is done, Know the right time. Being promised by the Buddha, Chau-na is more diligent. Annihilation, non-residual. Like running out of wood, the fire goes out. At that time Ananda got up from his seat and said to the Buddha, "After the Buddha's extinction, what should be done for burial?" The Buddha said to Ananda, "Be quiet. Think about your job. That was happily taken care of by the Puritans.” Ananda asked three times: "After the Buddha's extinction, what should be done with the funeral? Buddha said: "If you want to know how to bury, you should do it according to the way of burial. Again Ananda asked, "How is the cremation of the Wheel-turning-Rounding King? Buddha said: "Regarding the cremation of the Wheel-turning-Royal King, first take a fragrant bath to wash the body; take a new cotton cloth to wrap the body; Use five hundred cloths to wrap them in turn, and then put the body in the coffin. After being soaked with sesame oil, the coffin was placed in a second large iron sarcophagus, outside of which was a layer of cedar wood of Chien-danan incense. Thick fabrics, fragrant on top that tea-pi. After the tea-bhikkhu finished collecting the relics, he erected a tower to hang the altar at the crossroads so that people passing by could see the tower of the Dharma King and remember the king's righteous transformation, which had benefited many people. “Ananda, if you want to bury Me, first wash your body with fragrant water; take a new cotton cloth to wrap the body; Use five hundred cloths to wrap in turn, put the body in the coffin. After being soaked in sesame oil, the coffin was placed in a second large iron sarcophagus, outside of which was a layer of cedar wood of Chien-dandelion wood. Thick fabrics, the fragrance on that tea-pi. After the tea-bhikkhu finished collecting the relics, he erected a tower to hang the altar at the crossroads so that people passing by could see the Buddha's tower and remember the teachings of the Dharma King Tathagata. Sky." Then the World-Honored One wanted to reiterate this meaning, and he preached in a verse: Ananda left his seat, knelt down, folded his hands and said to the Buddha: The Tathagata has passed away, how is the burial? Anan, be quiet, Take care of yourselves. The local Thanh will happily take care of it. Ananda asked three times. The Buddha preached the burial of the King of Luan. If you want to bury the Buddha's body, wrap the body and put it in a sarcophagus. Building a crossroads tower, For the benefit of sentient beings. Those who come to pay respects are blessed with immeasurable blessings. The Buddha said to Ananda, "There are four classes of people in the world who should build stupas and make offerings of incense, flowers, banners, and music. Who are those? As Tathagata, Pratyekabuddha, Thanh Van and Turning King. Ananda, these four classes of people should be erected stupas and make offerings of incense, flowers, banners, and music. Then the Blessed One said a verse: The first is the Buddha stupa, the Pratyekabuddha, the shravaka, and the wheel-turning-holy king, the ruler of the four directions: These four places worthy of worship, Taught by the Tathagata: Buddha , Bich-chi, Thanh Van, And the tower of the wheel-turning king. At that time, the World-Honored One told Ananda to go together to the city of Ko-thi, among the twin life-trees of the Malla family. Anan replied yes. Then, together with the assembly, he followed the Blessed One and set out on his way. There was a brahmin from the city of Cau-thi, who went to Baba city, and in the middle of the road, he saw the Blessed One from afar, with a righteous face and calm senses. Seeing this, spontaneously born with joy, immediately went to the Buddha, inquired, then stood aside, said to the Buddha: "My village is not far from here. Wishing Duc Gotama to stay there for the night. Let's go in the morning when you have finished your life." Buddha said: "Enough is enough, Pham Chi. You have made offerings to Me now." Pham Chi graciously asked three times, the Buddha still replied as before, and said to Brahma again: "Ananda over there, you go there to express your opinion." Pham Chi heard the Buddha's words and immediately went to Ananda, finished visiting, stood to one side, said: "My village is not far from here. I would like to invite Duc Gotama to stay there for the night. Let's go in the morning when you have finished your life." Ananda replied, "Enough is enough, Pham Chi. You have already made an offering. Pham even graciously asked three times. Ananda replied, "It is already hot, the other village is far away, and the Blessed One is too tired to reach it." Then, after contemplating this meaning, the Blessed One uttered a verse: The One with Pure Eyes advances, Tired, towards dual life. When he saw the Buddha from afar, he rushed over and bowed his head: My village is nearby, Dear, stay one night. Tomorrow morning, make a small offering, Then go to that city. Brahma, My body is tired, The long way cannot pass. My servant follows. Come and inquire. Obeying the Buddha's instructions, Ben went to Ananda: Please come to my village. Tomorrow morning, eat and go. Ananda: stop, stop. It's hot, can't go. Three times the invitation was not satisfied, The look of sadness was not happy. Strangely, this conditioned, Changed forever, Now in the middle of the tree of two lives, I am finished, the body is not smuggled. Buddhas, Pratyekabuddhas, and Sravakas All are annihilated, Impermanent without choice, Like fire burning mountains and forests. At that time, the Blessed One entered the city of Kothi, went to the native land, in the middle of the forest of the Twin Lifespans of the Mala clan, and said to Ananda: "You Obeying the Buddha's instructions, Ben went to Ananda: Please come to my village. Tomorrow morning, eat and go. Ananda: stop, stop. It's hot, can't go. Three times the invitation was not satisfied, The look of sadness was not happy. Strangely, this conditioned, Changed forever, Now in the middle of the tree of two lives, I am finished, the body is not smuggled. Buddhas, Pratyekabuddhas, and Sravakas All are annihilated, Impermanent without choice, Like fire burning mountains and forests. At that time, the Blessed One entered the city of Kothi, went to the native land, in the middle of the forest of the Twin Lifespans of the Mala clan, and said to Ananda: "You Obeying the Buddha's instructions, Ben went to Ananda: Please come to my village. Tomorrow morning, eat and go. Ananda: stop, stop. It's hot, can't go. Three times the invitation was not satisfied, The look of sadness was not happy. Strangely, this conditioned, Changed forever, Now in the middle of the tree of two lives, I am finished, the body is not smuggled. Buddhas, Pratyekabuddhas, and Sravakas All are annihilated, Impermanent without choice, Like fire burning mountains and forests. At that time, the Blessed One entered the city of Kothi, went to the native land, in the middle of the forest of the Twin Lifespans of the Mala clan, and said to Ananda: "YouFix the place in the middle of the Song Tho tree for Me to lie down, with the head facing the North, the face facing the West. That's because my teachings will be handed down for a long time in the North." Ananda replied, “Yes.” Then clear the place, let the head be built to the North. Then the World-Honored One took the Sangha himself folded in half, covered himself, and lay on his side like a lion king, his legs overlapping. At that time, among the twin life trees, there were ghosts and spirits who devoted themselves to the Buddha, and scattered flowers in the wrong season all over the earth. The Buddha said to Ananda, "The deity of the twin life tree makes offerings to me like this with seasonal flowers, not yet making offerings to the Tathagata." Ananda said, "Why make offerings to the Tathagata?" The Buddha taught: "Those who know how to receive and properly practice the Dharma are those who make offerings to the Tathagata." Observing this meaning, the Buddha said a verse: Buddha in the middle of Song life, Lying on his side, mind not confused. Spirit tree of pure mind, Spread flowers on the Buddha. Ananda asked the Buddha: What is an offering? Listen to the Dharma and practice, Make offerings with flowers. Yellow flowers are like wheels, Not yet made offerings to the Buddha. Um, precepts, enter no-self, Is the best offering. At that time, Pham-mana held a fan and stood before the Buddha, and the Buddha said, "Get out of the way, don't stand in front of me." Ananda, hearing this, silently thought: "Phammana often serves the Buddha, provides all the necessities, and respects the Tathagata without being discouraged. Now on the last day, it's for you to take care of him, but why did the Buddha send him away, what's the point?" Then Ananda fixed his clothes, went to the Buddha, and said, "Phammana often serves the Buddha. humbled the Buddha, provided all necessities, and respected the Tathagata without getting discouraged. Now, on the last day, perhaps to let you see the squirrels, but why did the Buddha send them away, what is the point?" The Buddha said, "Outside this city of Koshi, twelve yojanas, All are the place of the Great Angels, filled with no space. They all complained: Why is this monk standing in front of the Buddha? Now, at the last moment when the Buddha is about to enter Nirvana, we gods want to come and worship once, but that monk with great majesty and great virtue, the bright light prevents us from getting close to the Buddha to worship. seems. That's why, Ananda, I tell you to stay away." Ananda said to the Buddha, "Didn't that bhikkhu in the past contain such virtues and practices, but now he has such great virtue?" The Buddha taught: "In the ninety-first life in the past life, there was a Buddha who was born with the name of Bhikshu. That bhikkhu, at that time, with a joyful heart, holding a grass torch to illuminate the Buddha's stupa, thanks to which he now has a magnificence that radiates throughout the twenty-eight heavens, the light of angels incomparable. keep". Then Ananda rose from his seat, lifted up his right shoulder, knelt down, clasped his hands together and said to the Buddha: "Please do not pass away in this desolate place in this narrow, rough city. Why? Currently, there are great countries such as Champa, Visali, Royal City, Bat Ky, Savat, Kapilavat, and Benares. There the people are crowded, many people are devoted to Buddhism. At those places where the Buddha passed away, many people would respect and make offerings to the relics." Buddha said: "Okay, enough, don't make such comments. Don't call this place sleazy. Why is that? Once upon a time in this country, there was a king named Dai Thien Kien and this city at that time was called Kosakāti. The king's city is four hundred and eighty miles long and two hundred and eighty miles wide. At that time, the rice harvest was cheap, and the people prospered. This citadel has seven layers, surrounded by seven layers of balustrades, carved with art and decorated with spiritual treasures. The foundation is three rings deep, twelve rings high. The castle on the citadel is ten rings high. Three-ring column ring. A city of gold has a silver gate, a city of silver has a golden gate, a city of lapis has a glass door, and a city of glass has a door of lapis lazuli. Surrounding the citadel is dignified with four jewels, interspersed with balustrades with four jewels. The gold floor hangs the silver spirit, the silver floor hangs the golden spirit. There are seven layers of moat, full of green, yellow, red, and white lotus flowers. The bottom of the moat is paved with golden sand. On both sides of the moat there are many dalan trees. A golden tree has silver leaves and flowers. Silver trees have golden leaves and fruits. Glass plants bear borage fruit. The borage plant has a glass fruit. Among the trees there is a swimming pool. The water is deep, clear, pure and not dirty. The two sides of the pond are paved with four precious bricks. If the ladder is gold, the stairs will be silver. Silver ladder has golden steps. The stairs are made of lapis lazuli, the steps are made of glass. Steps made of glass are lapis lazuli as steps. Around, railings surround each other. In that city, there was a Dandelion tree everywhere. A golden tree has silver leaves and flowers. Silver trees have golden leaves and fruits. Glass plants bear borage fruit. The borage plant has a glass fruit. Between the trees there are ponds made of four jewels, producing four kinds of flowers. The roads are neat, the ranks are similar. The wind blows, flowers fall and leaves fly on both sides of the road. The gentle wind blew through the treasured trees, emitting a gentle sound like heavenly music. People in the country, boys and girls, big and small, roam happily among the trees. That water usually has ten kinds of sounds: the sound of shells, drums, bales, songs, dances, blows, elephants, horses, vehicles, food, and laughter. “King Dai Thien Kien has all seven treasures. The king also has all four virtues. The seven treasures are: a precious golden wheel, a precious white elephant, a precious green horse, a jeweled god, a precious female jewel, a precious lay person, and a precious army. “How did King Dai Thien Kien accomplish the precious golden wheel? “Usually on the full moon day, the king bathed in incense, went up to sit in the palace, surrounded by women, and naturally a precious wheel appeared in front of him; Wheels have thousands of brilliant spokes, made by a craftsman, not in life. The wheel is all made of needles, with a diameter of one foot and four. At that time, King Dai Thien Kien thought to himself, "I have heard the veterans of the ancients say: If the king Empowers the Sa-li lineage, on the full moon day, takes a bath in perfumed water, goes up to sit at the palace, can female escorts come. Around, a natural time with a golden wheel appeared before him, the wheel had a thousand spokes, the light was brilliant, it was the work of the craftsmen of heaven, not made by man, made of real gold, the diameter of the staff Fourth, then it is called the Holy King Turning the Wheel of the Holy King. Is this the wheel of the treasure appearing now? Let's try and see how that car? “King Dai Thien Kien immediately summoned four troops, turned towards the golden wheel, lifted his right shoulder, knelt on the ground with his right knee, then patted the wheel with his right hand and said, 'You must move according to the law. to the East, not out of the ordinary. The wheel immediately turned to the East. The king then led the four armies to follow the golden wheel, in front of the golden wheel were four leading gods. When the yellow car stopped, the king also stopped the car. At that time, when the small countries of the East saw the great king coming, they brought a golden bowl of silver grain and a silver bowl of golden grain to the king, bowed their heads and said, "How good is the great king coming!" Now in this East, the land is fertile, the people are affluent, the character of humanity is peaceful, from filial piety and loyalty. I pray that the Holy King will rule this place with the righteous law, we will provide servants, accept everything that needs to be used. King Dai Thien Kien said to the emirs: Stop it, sages! So you made offerings to me. You should use the righteous law to govern the people, not to be biased, and not to allow the country to commit illegal acts. That means we cure. The kings obeyed. They immediately followed the king to patrol all over the country, until they returned to the East Sea. “The king went to the South, then the West, and the North. Wherever the golden wheel goes, the kings come and make offerings like the small states of the East. “At that time, King Dai Thien Kien, after having followed the golden wheel throughout the four seas, brought the right path to civilization, and comforted the people, and returned to the city of Kosakābha of his native country, the golden wheel stopped. in the air at the gate of the palace. King Dai Thien Kien was overjoyed and said: This precious golden wheel is indeed my good omen. Now I really am the Wheel-Changing Holy King. That is the achievement of the precious golden wheel. “How did King Dai Thien Kien achieve the precious white elephant? “At that time, early in the morning, King Dai Thien Kien was sitting in the main hall, suddenly a treasure elephant suddenly appeared in front of him. Its fur is pure white. Seven full seats. Volant. Its head is colorful. Six tapered tusks, interspersed with pure gold. After seeing it, the king thought to himself: This elephant is wise. If well trained, can ride. Ben wrong training trial. The set of abilities is enough. At that time, King Dai Thien Kien wanted to test the elephant himself, so he rode on it, and early in the morning, he left the city and traveled across the four seas. By the time lunch had arrived. Seeing this, King Thien Kien excitedly said: This precious white elephant is indeed a good omen for me. Now I really am the Wheel-Changing King. That is the achievement of the precious white elephant. “How did King Dai Thien Kien achieve the treasure horse? “Now, early in the morning, King Dai Thien Kien was sitting in the main hall, and suddenly, a precious horse suddenly appeared before his eyes. Its fur is blue, its mane is red. Tail, head and neck, like an elephant. It has the ability to fly. At that time, King Thien Kien thought to himself: This horse is wise. If trained well, can ride. Then the king sent training to try and practice all the abilities. When King Thien Kien wanted to experiment with the treasure horse himself, he rode it, early in the morning, out of the city, traveling the four seas. When it was time to eat, it was time to come. King Thien Kien excitedly said: This green treasure horse is indeed a good omen for me. I am now truly the Wheel-Changing Holy King, which is the accomplishment of a precious white horse. “How did King Dai Thien Kien achieve the god jewels? “Now, early in the morning, King Dai Thien Kien was sitting on the main hall, suddenly the god jewel suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. Pure color, transparent, no blemish. Seeing that, the king said: This pearl is so beautiful. Its light can illuminate the inner palace. Then the king wanted to test the bead, so he called in the four armies, and placed this jewel on the stage. At midnight it's dark, take it outside the city. The light of this bead illumines all the troops, like daylight. In the outer circle of the army, it once again illuminated a do-week. The people in the city all got up to work, because it was daylight. King Dai Thien Kien excitedly said: Now this precious bead is really a good omen for me. I am now really the wheel-turning-king of the wheel-turning-holy-king, that is the accomplishment of the jewel god. “How did King Dai Thien Kien achieve the jeweled maiden? “At that time, the precious jewel suddenly appeared. The beauty is generous, the appearance is righteous, not high, not low, not coarse, not refined, not black, not white, not stiff, not soft; winter, body warm; summer is cool; the pores all over the body exude the scent of the Sandalwood; the mouth breathes out the scent of the flower of the U-bad-la; soft spoken; graceful movements; Get up first, sit back, without losing any doubt. King Thien Kien at that time was pure and uncontaminated. The mind has no idea at all, let alone close. Then King Thien Kien excitedly said: This jade woman is indeed my good omen. I am now truly the Wheel-Changing King. That is the achievement of the precious jewel. “How did King Dai Thien Kien achieve the treasured lay people? “At that time the lay lay man suddenly appeared by himself. Natural treasures there. Infinite assets. Lay people have abundant blessings, so their eyes can see through the underground treasures. Owners or non-owners, both look and know. If there is an owner, he can take care of it. If he had no owner, he would collect it and give it to the king to use. The treasured layman went to the king: Great king, there is an offering, don't worry, the king. I can handle it myself. At that time, King Dai Thien Kien wanted to test the treasure of lay people, so he ordered a boat to be prepared for traveling. The king said to the layman: I need gold. Find me quickly. The layman said: Great King, please wait a moment. Wait for the shore. King tried to urge: I stop here. In need of use. You bring it now! At that time, the lay layman was strictly ordered by the king, so he knelt right on the boat, using his right hand to plunge into the water. The treasure pot from the water came up with his hand. As a worm climbs a tree, so too, with a treasured layperson, Treasures from the coastal waters follow the hand that appear full of boats. Then he said to the king: Just now, the Great King said he needed treasure. But how much is needed? King Thien Kien said to lay people: Well, enough is enough. I don't need to use anything. Just to try each other. That's how you have devoted yourself to me now. The other lay follower, hearing the king say this, immediately threw the treasure back into the water. King Thien Kien excitedly said: This treasured lay person is indeed a good omen for me. I am now truly the Wheel-Changing King. That is a treasured layman's achievement. “How did King Dai Thien Kien achieve mastery of the treasured army? “At that time, the treasured warrior suddenly appeared, wise, powerful, tactful, decisive. Then the leader of the army went to the king, saying: Great King, if there is a place to conquer, please do not worry. I can handle it myself. King Thien Kien at that time wanted to test the owner of the treasure, immediately ordered the four armies to be assembled, and said to the master of the army: You are now using an army, but have not yet assembled, gather; gathered, let's disperse; not serious please be strict; was strictly let loose; not go, tell me to go; gone, tell me to stop. After hearing the king's words, the treasure lord of the army commanded the four armies, so that they had not yet gathered, they gathered; having gathered, they shall be disbanded; not serious, then serious; was serious, let loose; have not gone, told to go; went, told to stop. King Thien Kien at that time said excitedly: The owner of this treasure is indeed a good omen for me. I am now truly the Wheel-Changing King. That is the treasurer. “This, Ananda, is the King Great Compassionate One who has accomplished the seven treasures. “What are the four divine virtues? One is to live a long life, not short, no one can compare. The second is a strong body, not sick, no one can compare. The third is a virtuous appearance, no one compares. Four is an overflowing treasure, second to none. “That is the wheel-turning-king of the wheel-turning-turning-king who accomplished the seven treasures and the four divine virtues. “Ananda, it took a long time before King Thien Kien ordered the driver to leave the rear. The king said to the charioteer: Drive the chariot slowly. Why? We want to examine carefully whether people are at peace and not have troubles. At that time, when the people of the country met on the road, they immediately said to the driver: You must go slowly. I want to see clearly the glory of the Holy King. At that time, Ananda, King Thien Kien caressed the people like a father loves his son. The nation respects the king's grave as a son respects his father. There is something rare they bring to the king: Pray for the king to charge for life, use it as you like. The king said: Enough is enough, gentlemen. We have enough resources to use. Gentlemen, take it and use it." “At another time the king thought: I want to create a palace. As soon as he had that thought, the people in the country came to the king and said: I would like to build a palace for the king. The king said: I think that you have already made offerings. We have the resources to take care of. The nation repeated the request: We would like to build a palace for the king. King said: As you like. The nation was ordered to bring eighty-four thousand84. 000 gold-carrying carts went to the city of Kosara to establish the Dharma hall. At that time, the skillful craftsman in heaven Dao-loi thought to himself: Only I am able to build the Dharma hall for King Dai Thien Kien. “At that time, Ananda, the angel skillfully built the Dharma hall sixty miles long and thirty miles wide, adorned with the four jewels. Flat background. The floor is paved with seven layers of precious bricks. The Dharma hall has eighty thousand pillars. The body of the column is gold, the top of the column is silver.

The light of the palace was so dazzling that it dazzled everyone, like the sun when it was so bright that no one could see it. “At that time, King Thien Kien thought: Now on both sides of the palace, let's build many ponds and gardens of Dalan trees. The king set up a garden. Horizontal vertical one do-week. The king thought: In front of the dharma hall, let's set up a dharma pond. Then built a French pond, horizontal and vertical one do-week. Pond water is clear, pure, not dirty. The bottom of the pond is paved with four precious bricks. Surrounding the pond are railings, are made of four precious things: gold, silver, glass, and lapis lazuli. Water in the pond, interspersed with flowers such as Upata-la, Ba-head-ma, Go-thing-head, Man-da-li. Flowers exude a strong fragrance everywhere. The land on the four sides of the pond grew flowers of all kinds, such as Aheo-da, Champa, Bala-la, Tu-manda, Ba-succa, and dan-cumale. The king sent someone to look after the pond.

In a moment, return to the city to eat. Then, riding on horse power, together with eighty-four thousand horses, early in the morning, they left the city to travel, to examine the world, and to travel across the four seas. In a moment, return to the city to eat.

With eighty-four thousand food, the king usually eats natural food. Because it's trinity. “When eighty-four thousand elephants appeared, they trampled, trampled, and killed countless living beings. The king then thought to himself: These elephants hurt sentient beings too much. From now on, an elephant will appear every hundred years. Repeat this until the end of the round, then come back.” At that time, the Blessed One said to Ananda: "King Great Compassionate View thought to himself, 'What merits do I have in store, what good deeds have I done, and now I have such beautiful retribution? The king remembered that thanks to the three predestined conditions that caused that blessing. What are those three fates? One is Generosity, the other is Precepts, three is the fourth Zen. The king thought again: Now that I have enjoyed the blessings of the human world, let's go ahead and practice more about the blessings of heaven. Let us limit ourselves and reduce; avoid noisy places; hide in a quiet place to practice Taoism. Then the king sent to call the pearl goddess Hien Thien, saying: Now that I have enjoyed the blessings of the human world, let's go ahead and practice more about the blessings of heaven. Let us limit ourselves and reduce; avoid noisy places; hide in a quiet place to practice Taoism. Pearl replied: Yes, yes. Please obey the King's instructions. Then the decree for both inside and outside from now on exempt from servitude. The king immediately went up to the dharma hall, entered the golden building, sat on the silver bed, thinking lust is evil and unwholesome. With enlightenment and contemplation, there is joy and happiness arising from detachment, attaining the first jhāna. Except for reduced perception and contemplation, inner faith, joy and approval, single-mindedness, non-enlightenment and contemplation, there is joy and happiness born of concentration, second meditation. Equanimity, protection, dedicated mindfulness, no confusion, self-awareness of body and happiness, what the sage wishes for, together with household, mindfulness and happiness, and attainment of the third jhāna. Letting go of pain and pleasure, eradicating pain and joy from the past, not suffering, not being happy, pure protection and mindfulness, attaining the fourth jhāna. “Then King Thien Kien got up from his silver bed, got out of the golden building, went to the Dai Chinh floor, sat on the lapis lazuli bed and practiced loving kindness, spreading loving-kindness in one direction and then in the other, too. pervasive, vast, without two, without limit, except for all anger, the mind no longer has any jealousy, but enjoys what is calm and gentle. Then continue to practice on Compassion, Joy, and Equanimity as well. “At that time, the precious jade girl thought to herself: I haven't seen her face in a long time, so I thought I should pay a visit. Now you should see the king. Then the precious jewel, Hien Thien, said to the eighty-four thousand female bodies: Let each of you bathe with perfumed water and put on your clothes. That's because we haven't seen the face for a long time, so let's pay a visit. When the female body heard this, they all put on makeup and washed their clothes. Then the jade woman said to the warlord, the treasure god, who had gathered the four armies, saying: We haven't seen your face for a long time, so let's pay a visit. The leader of the treasured army immediately gathered the four armies and said to the jeweled woman: The four armies have been trained. Should know the time. Then the jeweled woman led eighty-four thousand female bodies, along with the four armies, to the garden of Jindalin. The warm sound of the crowd's shock resounded to the king. Hearing that, the king went to the window to see. At that time, the precious jewel stood on one side in front of the door. Seeing a precious female jewel, the king said, "You must not step forward. We'll go see. King Thien Kien left the crystal throne, went out of the Great Hall, went down to the main hall, and accompanied the jade girl to the garden of Dalan, sit on the prepared seat. At that time, the color of King Thien Kien was brighter than usual. The precious jewel girl Hien Thien thought to herself: Now, the King's face is much more than usual. Is there any strange omen? Then the precious female jewel said to the king: Great King, now the beauty is extraordinary. Is it not an omen of the end of life? Now, these eighty-four thousand elephants, the white elephants are first class, adorned with gold and silver, with jewels as tassels; All are owned by the king. Please pay attention to the king, enjoy together, do not give up life and abandon ten thousand people. Another eighty-four thousand horses, the most powerful horse king.

Eighty-four thousand million robes, the most pliable. Eighty-four thousand food, each taste is rare. All these treasures belong to the king. I hope the king pays attention to it, enjoys it together, don't give up your life and abandon ten thousand people. “King Thien Kien said to the precious jewel: You have served me with peace and respect ever since, and never spoke rudely, why do you now have such words? Ngoc female said: I don't know what's wrong with that word. The king said: The things that you just said, elephants, horses, vehicles, temples, clothes, and precious gifts are impermanent and cannot be preserved for long, but advise me to stay and enjoy. is it? Ngoc female said: Isn't it good to say how to be favorable? The king said: If you had said, elephants, Horses, vehicles, temples, clothes, and generosity are impermanent and cannot be maintained for long, but advise us not to get attached to doing anything to harm the gods. For the king's life will soon pass away to another. Whenever there is birth, there will be death, if there is a union, there will be a separation, it is not possible to live here forever. So cut off sex and focus on morality. If you say that, it's respectful. "Ananda, hearing the king's instruction like this, the jade maiden mourned and lamented, wiping away her tears, saying, 'Elephants, horses, vehicles, temples, robes, and bounties are impermanent and do not last long. okay, don't be too attached to do anything for the god of labor. For the king's life will soon pass away to another. Whenever there is birth, there will be death, if there is a union, there will be a separation, it is not possible to live here forever. So cut off sex and focus on morality. “Ananda, just a moment after that precious jewel had finished speaking, King Thien Kien suddenly passed away, without pain, Like a man in a delicious meal, his spirit is reborn in the seventh Brahma heaven. "Seven days after the king's death, all the jewels and jewels disappeared, the precious elephants, the precious horses, the precious jewels, the treasured lay people, and the precious soldiers all died in one day; The ponds, the temples, the temples, the jeweled ornaments, the Kim- dalan garden, all turned into wood and earth." The Buddha said to Ananda, "Ananda, this conditioned dharma is impermanent, subject to change, and eventually to wear and tear. Greed is not boring. Dissipative network. Falling in love never knows enough. Only those who have attained Holy Wisdom and see the principles clearly will know enough. “Ananda, I remember being in this place, six times I was reborn as a Wheel-turning-Rounding King and finally left my body here. Now that I have attained Supreme Enlightenment, I also want to give up my life and send my body here. From now on, I have ended birth and death, There is no longer a place to leave My body. This is the last life. I am no longer born again. At that time, the Blessed One, in the city of Kuthina-kiss, the native land, in the garden of Sala, between the two trees of the two life spans, nearing the end of his life, said to Ananda: "O Ananda, ! You go into the city of Cuthina Kiet, and inform the Melanites: You should know, the Tathāgatas, at midnight tonight, will enter Nirvana in the midst of the twin life trees in the Sala garden. You should promptly come to ask questions and directly listen to the Buddha's instructions, so that you will not regret later." Ananda obeyed the Buddha's instructions, got up from his seat, bowed to the Buddha, and left. Together with another bhikkhu, with tears in his eyes, he entered the city of Kothina. When he entered the city, he met five hundred Maltese who had a meeting in one place. When they saw Ananda coming, they all got up to greet him, then stood to one side and said: "I don't understand what is wrong with the venerable one to enter the city at this evening?" Ananda burst into tears and said, "For your sake, I have come to believe that the Tathagata will enter Nirvana at midnight tonight. You should promptly come to ask doubts, directly listen to the Buddha's teachings, so that you will not repent later." As soon as they heard it, the Malha people cried out, struggled to the ground, and some fainted and woke up. For example, when a large tree is uprooted, its branches will all fall. They all lamented: "Buddha passed away so quickly! Buddha's extinction so quickly! If the eyes of the world disappear, sentient beings will suffer long-term damage." Ananda comforted them, saying, “Don't be sad, folks! Heaven and earth, every living thing is born and dies. Wanting conditioned dharmas to last forever is impossible. Did not the Buddha say: There is a union, there is separation, there is birth and there is destruction!" Then the Melanites said to one another: "Let's go home, bring our family members and five hundred pieces of white cloth, and go to Twin Life." The Malla people went to their own homes, took their family members and brought five hundred white silk sheets out of the city of Kothi, into the middle of the Song Tho forest, and went to Ananda. Ananda, seeing it from afar, thought to himself: There are many of them. If we let everyone in to see the Buddha one by one, I'm afraid that the Tathagata has already passed away! I should tell them to come and pay their respects to the Buddha at the beginning of the day." Ananda immediately led five hundred Malla people and their family members to the Buddha, bowed down at the Buddha's feet, then stood aside and said, "Now, there are Malas with such names and family members, please visit them. Is the Buddha in good health?" Buddha said: "I'm sorry to visit you. I wish you a long, disease-free life.” Ananda was in this way able to bring all the Maltese and their relatives to visit the Buddha. At that time, the Malagas bowed down at the Buddha's feet, and then sat to one side. The Blessed One preached to them about impermanence, showing them, teaching them to benefit them, and to rejoice. After hearing the Dharma, all the Malas were delighted and brought five hundred pieces of white cloth to the Buddha. Buddha received. The Mahlas left their seats, bowed to the Buddha, and then withdrew. At that time, in the city of Cauthi, there was a Brahma named Tubat, an old man of many wisdom, one hundred and twenty-120 years old, who heard that the recluse Gotama would die tonight in the middle of a twin life tree. , he thought to himself: I have doubts about the Dharma. Only Duc Gotama can explain what I mean. We should try to go to Buddha in time. That very night he tried to get out of the city and go to Song Tho, to Ananda. After greeting, he said: "I heard that the recluse Gotama is about to enter Nirvana tonight, so I came here to pay my respects once. I have doubts about the Dharma, I hope to meet Gotama so that he can solve it for me. So, will you be free to let me in and worship?" Ananda said, "Don't stop Tu-bat! Buddha is sick. Don't disturb Him." Subhuti tried to plead three times, saying: "I heard that the Tathagata was born like the Udumbara flower, and it took a long time to appear, so I came here to pray to have my doubts resolved. Would you spare me a moment to see you?" Ananda also replied as before: "Buddha is sick. Don't disturb Him." At that time the Buddha said to Ananda: "Ananda, don't stop. Let him in. He wanted to settle the doubt, no distractions. If you hear my Dharma, it will be made clear." Ananda said to Subhuti, "If you want to visit the Buddha, please come in." Subhuti was able to enter, finished greeting the Buddha, sat to one side and said to the Buddha: "I have doubts about the Dharma. Are you free to solve the problem?" Buddha said: "You can ask whatever you want." Tuba asked, "Vatican, there are other sects, who claim to be masters, such as Phatlan Kashyapa, Magdalene Kieusari, and Abuddha Si. -sakim-bat-la, Pafu Ka-chien, Tathagata-Tildal-lephus, Ni-kien-tzu. Those teachers all have their own teachings, does the recluse Gotama know them all?" The Buddha replied: "Stop talking, I know all those teachings. Now I will speak to you about the profound and wonderful dharma, so listen and reflect wisely. Hey Tu-bat! In any teaching without the Eight Noble Paths, there would be no first, second, third, and fourth contemplation. In any teaching, there are eight Noble Paths, there is the first, second, third, and fourth samana. Now, in this teaching, there are eight Noble Paths, so there is the first samadhi, the second and third samadhi, Wednesday. There are no pagans among them.” Then the Blessed One read the verse: I am twenty-nine years old, I have left home to seek the Right Path. Since I became a Buddha, Up to now, fifty years. The morality, concentration, wisdom, I alone think. Now, I teach the essential Dharma: Non-Samon outsiders. The Buddha said, "O Subhuti! If all the bhikkhus could compose their own minds, then this world would not be empty of arahants. At that time, Tuba said to Ananda, "Those who follow the recluse Gotama, who have practiced holy life, are currently practicing, and will practice, all benefit greatly. Ananda, you follow the Tathagata to practice the holy life and gain great benefits. Now that I can meet the Tathagata, ask my doubts, I also get great benefits. Now the Tathagata has also signed for me as a special sign for his disciples." Then he said to the Buddha: "Can I now live in the Tathagata's Dharma and go forth from the home life and receive the full precepts?" Buddha said: "O Subhuti, If there is a scholar of Brahma who wants to practice in our teachings, he must be tested for four months to examine their behavior, their aspirations, and their character. If you see enough positions, nothing is lacking, you will be allowed to receive the full precepts in my teaching. However, Subhuti, it depends on each person's conduct." Tu-Bat again said to the Buddha: "If you want to practice in Buddhism, you must be tested for four months to see your behavior, aspirations, and character. If you see enough positions and nothing is lacking, you will be allowed to receive the full precepts in the Buddhadharma. Now that I can serve four years in the Buddhadharma, when all positions are complete, there is no shortage of things, then I will apply for full precepts." The Buddha said: "O Subhuti, I have said it before. It depends on the behavior of each person.” That very night, Tu-Bat was ordained, ordained, and practiced in purity, in the present moment, personally witnessing: "Saints and deaths have ended, the holy life has been established, the work to be done has been done, attained as true knowledge, no more rebirth." At nearly midnight, he attained Arahantship, was the last disciple of the Buddha and passed away before the Buddha. At that time, Ananda, standing behind the Buddha, could not help himself with compassion, so he patted his bed and lamented, saying, "The Tathagata has passed away in such a hurry! The World-Honored One died so quickly! How quickly did Dafa become silent! When the eyes of the world disappear, sentient beings will suffer long-term decline! Thanks to the Buddha's grace, now I have only been able to go to the stage of study and practice, but the Tathagata has passed away!" At that time, even though the World-Honored One knew, he tried to ask: "Where is the bhikkhu Ananda?" The bhikkhus said to the Buddha: "Bhikkhu Ananda, who was behind the Buddha, couldn't help himself, so he patted his bed and lamented, saying, 'The Tathagata has passed away so quickly! How quickly did Dafa become silent! When the eyes of the world disappear, sentient beings will suffer long-term decline! Thanks to the Buddha's grace, now I have only been able to go to the stage of study and practice, but the Tathagata has passed away!" The Buddha said to Ananda: "Stop it, Ananda, don't be sad and cry. Up until now you have served Me with gentle gestures, respectful language, and faithful and joyful thoughts as one, indescribable. Oh, you have made offerings to Me, great merit. If there were any offerings from the gods, Ma, Brahma, recluse, and brahmin, it could not be compared. Be diligent, your day of enlightenment is not long!" Then the Blessed One said to the monks: "Bhikkhus! The disciples who served the Buddhas of the past were just like Ananda. Disciples serving future Buddhas are just like Ananda. But the servants of the Buddhas of the past, the Buddha taught them to know. And now Ananda, I just opened my eyes and knew what the Tathagata wanted. That's the miracle of Anan, remember. “Changing the wheel of the holy king The turning of the wheel of the holy king has four special, strange and rare dharmas. What are four? When the Holy King left, people all over the country came to welcome him; When he saw the king, he was happy, when he heard the teaching, he was also happy, and when he admired the beauty, he did not get bored. When the Holy King was standing, when the Holy King was sitting, and when the Holy King was lying down, the people all came to pay their respects, to see the king, they were happy, to hear the king's joy, they looked at the king's face without getting bored. Those are the four special dharmas of the Holy King. Ananda also has these four special dharmas. When Ananda quietly entered the group of monks, they were all happy; preach to them, everyone is happy to hear; look at the doubt, listen to the sermon, never get bored. When Ananda entered the community of bhikkhunis, when Ananda entered the community of Upasakas, when Ananda joined the Upasi, where he was seen, he was happy, and when he heard Ananda's teaching, he was also happy; they looked suspiciously at Ananda's teaching and did not tire of it. These are Ananda's four special and rare dharmas." At that time, Ananda lifted up his robe, spread his right shoulder, knelt down on his right knee, and said to the Buddha: "World Honored One, at present there are ascetics in the four directions, including veterans, well-versed, knowledgeable in the laws and regulations, and virtuous. high voice, often come to pay respects to the Buddha, so that I can be respectful and close to ask questions. But after the Buddha's extinction, they don't come anymore, I don't know who to ask, what to do?" The Buddha said to Ananda: "Don't worry. Children of lineage often have four places of remembrance: “1. Thinking of the place where Buddha was born, happy to see, remember forever and never forget, born with attachment to the grave; "2. Thinking of the place where the Buddha attained enlightenment, happy to see it, remember it forever and never forget it. “3. Thinking of the first place where the Buddha turned the Dharma wheel, happy to see it, remembering it forever, never forgetting, born with a mind attached to the grave; “4. Thinking of the place where the Buddha entered Nirvana, joyfully wanting to see it, remembering and not forgetting, born with a mind of attachment to the grave. “Ananda, after I have passed away, the son or daughter of the family will remember that when the Buddha was born, there were such merits, when the Buddha attained enlightenment, there were such miracles, when the Buddha turned the wheel of Dharma, there were such a transformation, when the Buddha passed away, there were teachings like that. Then each person went to those four places to pay respects, set up pagodas and towers to make offerings. When they die, they are all reborn in heaven, except for those who have attained enlightenment. "Ananda, after I pass away, there are people of the Sakyan family who come to seek the way, so let them be ordained. Don't wait too long. Those who have come to seek the path of Pham Chi also accept the full ordination of ordination, do not have to try for four months. Because others have already learned other doctrines, if left too long, their previous views will arise again. At that time Ananda knelt down, folded his hands and said to the Buddha: "Bhikkhu Xien-ra is rude and self-absorbed. After the Buddha's extinction, how should he behave?" The Buddha said: "After I have passed away, if the angry bhikkhu Xien-ang does not obey his position, refuses to listen to the teachings, you should deal with them in accordance with the law of breaking the ashram, which is to command all the bhikkhus that no one should be allowed to do so. talk together, go back and forth, instruct, help.” Ananda again said to the Buddha: "After the Buddha's extinction, how should women who come to receive teachings be treated?" Buddha said: "Don't meet them." "What if we have to meet?" "Don't talk together." "Suppose we have to talk together?" “Take care of your own mind. “Ananda, do not think that after I perish, you will lose your refuge and have no one to protect you. Don't think like that. You should know that the Sutras and Precepts that I have taught you since becoming Dao until now are your refuge and protection! “Ananda, from now on, it is permissible for the bhikkhus to abandon petty precepts at will. Those above and below who address each other must be polite. That is the law of respect for the monastic." Then the Buddha said to the bhikkhus: "Bhikkhus, regarding the Buddha, the Dharma and the Sangha, regarding the Right Path, do you have any doubts, you should promptly inquire to avoid regret later. repent. As long as I have time, I will preach to you." The bhikkhus were silent. Buddha again said: "You, towards the Buddha, the Dharma and the Sangha, regarding the Right Path, do you have any doubts, you should promptly inquire so that you won't regret it later." The monks also remained silent. The Buddha said, "If you are afraid to ask, please quickly ask the knowledgeable people for help; should be timely so as not to regret later.” The monks also remained silent. Ananda said to the Buddha, "I believe that everyone here has pure faith, and no one has doubts about the Buddha, the Dharma, the Sangha, and the Right Way. The Buddha said: "Ananda, I also know that in this assembly even the smallest bhikkhu can see the sign of the path, no longer fall into the evil path, after only seven rebirths in this world of desire to practice will cease. end of suffering.” At that time, the World-Honored One immediately prophesied to one thousand two hundred,1200 disciples who had attained enlightenment. Then the Blessed One put on the tundra-la-sang, revealing his golden-colored arms, and said to the bhikkhus: "Consider that the Tathagata, when he emerges from the world, is like the flower of the Udumbara flower. once in a while.” Observing this meaning, the Blessed One read the verse: Right hand color purple gold, Buddha appears as Linh Thuy. Acts of cessation of impermanence; Extinction, do not let go. “Therefore, bhikkhus, do not let loose. It is by not letting go that we attain Right Enlightenment. Countless good things are obtained through not letting go. All things are impermanent, that is the final teaching of the Tathagata." Then, the Blessed One entered the first meditation; then from the first meditation exit, enter the second meditation; from the second meditation, entering the third meditation; from the Three meditations to export, to enter the fourth meditation, from the four meditations to come out, to enter the Land of No residence; determined; from No origin, import and export Consciousness; from Consciousness to export, enter into No-Ownership; from No-own-origin origin, enter Phi-idea-non-perception-land; From the non-perception of the non-perception of the origin of the origin, entering the cessation of life, the thought of concentration. At that time Ananda asked Ananda: "Has the Blessed One entered Nirvana?" Analaw said, “No, Anan. The Blessed One is currently in the cessation of perception and feeling. I heard from the Buddha before that when the Buddha emerged from the fourth jhāna, he entered Nirvana.” Then the World-Honored One came out from the cessation of life, entered the non-perception of non-perception, from the non-perception of non-perception, came out and entered the No-own-possession concentration; from No property to export, enter the local Consciousness; from Consciousness of origin, enter Not of origin; from No place to export, enter the fourth meditation; from the fourth meditation, entering the third meditation; from the third meditation, entering the second meditation; from the Second meditation, entering the first meditation; and then from the First Jhana came out in turn to the Fourth Jhana, then from the Fourth Jhana, the Buddha entered Nirvana. At that moment, the earth trembled, the heavens and men were terrified. The dark places that the moon and the sun can't reach are bright. Beings there saw each other and said to each other: That person gave birth to this person! The other gave birth to this person! That light shines all over, more than the light of the gods. At that time, Heaven of Dao Loi, In the middle of nowhere, use Vandalas flowers, Upadsala flowers, Ba headma flowers, Go-ma-head flowers, Mandala flowers, and scatter them on the body of the Buddha and the assembly. Then he took the incense powder and scattered it on the body of the Buddha and the assembly. When the Buddha passed away, then Brahma, in the middle of nowhere, recited a verse that said: All living beings must give up their lives. Buddha is the Supreme Being, the world has no equal; The Tathagata is a great saint, Has fearless divine power, Should have lived for a long time, But now it is extinct! Heaven Thich Dehuan Nhan read a verse: All actions are impermanent Just the dharma of birth and death. There is birth and death, Buddha's death is happy. The heavenly king Bhikkhu recited the verse: The Great Accompaniment of the Blessed Tree, the Unsurpassed Sala. The Blessed One, the God of Destruction in the midst of the forest. Bhikkhu-stilts ana-law read verse: Buddha abides in non-action, No need to breathe in and out. Originally from the Annihilation, the Divine Star sets here. Bhikkhu-stilts Pham-mana read the verse: Do not generate the mind to interpret the self-concept, cultivate superior wisdom. Not infected, not infected, the Supreme Being leaves love. Bhikkhu-stilts Ananda read the verse: Gods and people are terrified, All body hairs stand up. The teaching was accomplished, the Blessed One entered Nirvana. The god Kim-pila offered praise to the Buddha: The world lost its protection, All sentient beings were blind, Can't see Right Enlightenment, the Lion among people. The athlete's secret stanza reads the verse: Devas, Humans, Ma, Pham, In this life and in the next, Buddhas and Lions can no longer be seen among people. Madam Buddha's mother reads a verse: Buddha was born in the Lumbhi garden; His religion is widely distributed. Returning to his place of birth, he surrendered his body to impermanence. God of Song Life reads the verse: When will I take the season of flowers and offer it to the One who has full ten powers, the Tathagata enters Nirvana. Forest god Sala reads a verse: This place is wonderfully happy, Buddha was born here. Here transfer French cars, Here again Nirvana. The Four Heavenly Kings read the verse: The Tathagata is supremely wise, Often interprets impermanence. Untying sentient beings suffering, Now fully enter Nirvana. Knife-Loi Thien Vuong read the verse: Experiencing thousands of thousands of kalpas, I hope to attain the Supreme Way. Untying sentient beings suffering, Now fully enter Nirvana. Diem Thien Vuong read the stanza: This is the ultimate garment Used to wrap the Tathagata's body. Now that the Buddha has passed away, who is this Y for? Tusita-da Thien Vuong read the verse: This is the last body, the world is destroyed here. No thoughts of joy, No calamity, old age and death. In the middle of the night, the Buddha was lying on his right side, at the Heavenly King. Staying in Sala forest, Thich Lion passed away. The heavenly king reads a verse: The world is forever dark, the moon and stars all fall, Clouds are impermanent, and the sun is dim. The Bhikkhu-stilts read the verse: This body is like foam, Fragile has nothing to be happy about. The Buddha obtained the vajra body, but was also subject to impermanence. Body Vajra Buddhas, Also refer to impermanence; Dissipated like snow, How about the people of the world. After the Buddha's extinction, the bhikkhus were in pain, struggling, threw themselves to the ground, rolled around and lamented, unable to control themselves, sobbing, saying: "How quickly will the Tathagata pass away! The World-Honored One died soon instead! Why did Dafa sink sooner rather than later! Pants born forever collapse; the eyes of the world are shut off.” Like a large tree trunk, uprooted, broken branches. Like a snake with a broken part, crawling, twisting, not knowing which way to crawl. The bhikkhus too, grieving and struggling, threw themselves to the ground, rolling around and lamenting, unable to control themselves, sobbing and saying: How quickly will the Tathagata pass away! The World-Honored One died soon instead! Why did Dafa sink sooner rather than later! Pants born forever collapse; the eyes of the world are closed. At that time, the Elder Analaw advised: "Now, bhikkhus, don't be sad, lest there be a line of gods looking down and seeing them reproach them." The bhikkhus asked Ananda: "How many angels are there on it?" Analaw said, “It is full of vanity. Tell me why. All were in the void, restless, restless, limping, wiping away tears and lamenting: How quickly will the Tathagata pass away! The World-Honored One died soon instead! Why did Dafa sink sooner rather than later! Pants born forever collapse; the eyes of the world are closed. Like a large tree trunk, uprooted, broken branches. Like a snake with a broken part, crawling, twisting, not knowing which way to crawl. The gods too, are all in the void, anxious, restless, limping, wiping away tears and lamenting: How quickly will the Tathagata pass away! The World-Honored One died soon instead! Why did Dafa sink sooner rather than later! Pants born forever collapse; the eyes of the world are closed. The Bhikkhu-stilts spent all night until morning preaching the Dharma together. The elder Ana Luat told Ananda to go into the city to inform the people of the Malla lineage that the Buddha had passed away. Ananda obeyed, got up, bowed to the Buddha's feet, and led a bhikkhu, crying as he entered the city. From a distance Ananda saw five hundred Maltese people gathered in one place due to some predestined circumstances. Seeing Ananda, they all got up to greet him, bowed down and asked, "What is the matter with you, venerable sir, coming here so early?" Ananda replied, "For your sake, I came here early in the morning. You should know that the Tathagata passed away last night. If you want to make offerings, you should come in time.” As soon as they heard the news, they all felt sad and cried, saying, "Why is the Buddha entering Nirvana in such a hurry? The eyes of the world perish so quickly!" Ananda advised: “Stop it, gentlemen! Don't be sad! It is impossible for conditioned dharmas not to be destroyed. The Tathagata has taught that when there is birth, there is death, when there is union, there is separation, all affection is impermanent." The mahāsatās discussed among themselves, “Let us return home, bring incense, flowers, and music, go quickly to the forest of the Twins, to make offerings to the golden body for a whole day, then ask the Buddha's body to be placed on a bed, make the young Malla lift the four corners of the bed and carry them away; There are phantoms, awnings, burning incense, scattering flowers, playing music, and making offerings. Bring it to the east gate at all directions for people to make offerings, then take it out to the west gate, to a high and wide hill where tea-bhikkhus are." After the table was finished, everyone went home, bought incense, flowers, and music, then went to the Song Tho forest to make offerings to the relics. All day long, they put the Buddha's relics on a bed. Together they came to carry it. But bad not up. The new elder Analaw said, "Don't work hard to carry, brethren! Now there are gods who want to come and carry the bed." The Maltese asked, "How is it that the gods want to carry the bed?" Ana-law replied: "You want to bring incense, flowers, music, make offerings to the metal body for a day, then ask for the Buddha's body to be placed on a bed, so that the young Mal-la lifts the four corners of the bed and carries it away; There are phantoms, awnings, burning incense, spreading flowers, and playing music to make offerings. They were brought into the city of the East gate in all directions for the people to make offerings to, then brought out to the city of the West gate, to a high and wide hill where tea-bhikkhus were. According to the will of the gods, they want to save the body for seven days to pay respects and make offerings with flowers, incense, and music, then invite them to bed, let the young Mala raise the four corners and process them into the east gate. in all directions for the people to make offerings, and then brought it out to the north gate, cross the river Hi-lian-meditation to Thien Quan pagoda that tea-pi. Such is the will of the gods, so make the bed motionless." The Mahlas said, “Very good! May the gods please!" They said to each other, "Let's go into the city first, go to the alleys, clear the roads, sweep the fields, burn incense, and then come back here to make offerings of the golden body for seven days." Then the maharas entered the city together, went to the alleys, smoothed the roads, swept the streets, burned incense, then left the city, returned to the forest of Twins, used incense, flowers, and music to make offerings to gold. close. After seven days, at dusk, they asked the Buddha's body to be placed on a bed, so that the young Malans lifted the four corners to carry them leisurely among the crowd of escorts, with banners, flowers, and music. offerings. From the sky, the Dao Loi gods used Vandala flowers, Udumbara flowers, Ba headma flowers, Gou-to-head flowers, Fen-da-li flowers and incense powder of heavenly Chien Dan are scattered on the needles and flooded the streets, the gods play music, the ghosts and gods sing. At that time the Malha people said to each other, “Put aside human music. Please play heavenly music to make offerings to the relics." Then the Melalds, carrying beds, approached gradually, entered the eastern gate of the city, and stopped at each street to let the people burn incense, scatter flowers, and play music to make offerings. At that time, there was a lady Lodi of the Malala lineage, who devoted herself to the Buddha, holding a golden flower as large as a wheel as an offering to the golden body, and an old woman exclaims, "These maharas are fortunate to have good fortune. big. The Tathagata finally passed away here. All over the country, people joyfully made offerings.” After they finished making offerings, they took their bodies to the north gate, crossed the Hi-lian-zen river to Thien Quan pagoda, laid their beds on the ground, and said to Ananda: “How else should we make offerings now?” Ananda said, "I directly heard from the Buddha, received the Buddha's teaching that: If you want to bury the relics, you should do it like the method of burial. Question: "What is the cremation of the Wheel of the Holy King?" Answer: "Regarding the burial of the Holy King, the Holy King is first bathed with scented water, then wrapped in a new cotton cloth, then wrapped in five hundred cloths one by one, and placed the body in the golden coffin. . After being soaked in sesame oil, the coffin was placed in a second large iron sarcophagus, outside of which was a layer of cedar wood of Chien-dandelion wood. Thick fabrics, fragrant on top that tea-pi. After tea-bhikkhu picked up the relics, erecting a tower to hang worship at the crossroads so that people passing by can see the tower of the Dharma King and remember the king's righteous transformation, which has benefited many people. Ananda, if you want to bury Me, first wash your body with fragrant water, then wrap your body in fresh cotton cloth, then wrap it in five hundred cloths one by one, and place your body in the coffin. After being soaked in sesame oil, the coffin was placed in a second large iron sarcophagus, outside of which was a layer of cedar wood of Chien-dandelion wood. Thick fabrics, fragrant on top that tea-pi. After the tea-bhikkhu finished collecting the relics, he erected a tower to hang the altar at the crossroads so that people passing by could see the Buddha's tower and remember the teachings of the Dharma King Tathagata. Sky. Except for those who have attained the Way." They said to each other, "Let's go to the city to buy funeral goods, flowers, flowers, cotton wool, coffins, fragrant oils, and white silk.” The Malās who entered the city finished shopping, returned to the Thien Quan temple, washed the Buddha's body with perfumed water, wrapped it in fresh cotton cloth, wrapped it in five hundred layers of white cloth, and placed it in the coffin. impregnated with perfumed oil, put the coffin again in a large iron sarcophagus, and then a wooden sarcophagus of Chien-dan is covered. Done, fill it with fragrant firewood. Next, the great deity of the Māla lineage named Ldi, holding a large torch, lit a fire on the pyre, but the fire did not burn. The Elders also took fire with them, but the fire still did not burn. The elder Anali said to the Malas, "Come on, gentlemen, your strength won't be able to burn it. Fire does not burn because of the will of the gods." They asked, "Why did the gods keep the fire from burning?" Analaw replied: "The gods saw Maha Kassapa leading five hundred disciples back from Baba so that they could see the Buddha before he had gone to the monastery. The Venerable is currently halfway. The gods know the will, so they keep the fire from burning." They said, "Let it be satisfied." At that time, Maha Kassapa, leading five hundred disciples, had just crossed the middle of the road from Baba, when he met a Nike-tzu in his hand holding a flower of Mandala. Maha Kassapa approached him and asked, “Hey, friend! Where are you from?" Nikienzi replied, "I have come from the city of Kothi." Kassapa again asked, "Do you know my teacher?" "Do you know". Again asked: "How is my teacher now?" Answer: “Having passed away seven days ago. I came from there, so I picked up this heavenly flower." When Kassapa heard that, he was very sad. The five hundred bhikkhus, hearing the Buddha's passing, were sad and weeping, whirling around and lamenting, unable to control themselves: "What a hurry the Tathagata's extinction is! The World-Honored One died so quickly! How quickly did Dafa become silent! The eyes of the world have been destroyed, sentient beings have long degraded! For example, a large tree is uprooted, branches are broken. It's like a snake with its tail cut off, spinning around, not knowing where to go." But among them, a monk named Batanda, of the Sakya family, stopped the monks, saying: "Don't worry. When the Blessed One passes away, we will be free. That old man used to tell us to do this, not to do this. But from now on, it's up to us to do it." Hearing this, the heart became even sadder, so he told the monks to prepare their robes and go quickly to Song Tho before they could see the Buddha before they could see the Buddha. When the bhikkhus heard Mahakashyapa's words, they all got up and followed him to the city of Cau-thi, crossed the Hi-lien-meditation river to Thien Quan pagoda, and then came to Ananda. After questioning, he stood aside and said to Ananda: “We want to see the Buddha one last time before we have tea, is it possible?” Ananda replied, "Even though he hasn't made a monk yet, it's hard to see, because the Buddha's body has been bathed in incense, wrapped in a layer of three kalpas, wrapped in five hundred layers of white cloth, and placed in a golden coffin. The coffin was placed in an iron sarcophagus, and the outside was covered with a wooden sarcophagus, so it was difficult to see.” Kassapa begged three times, Ananda still replied the same, it is difficult to see the Buddha again! The new Dai Kassapa turned his face to the fire altar to worship, then suddenly from the three layers of the sarcophagus, the Buddha brought his two feet out. Legs are different colors. Seeing this, Kassapa was surprised and asked Ananda, "Buddha's body is golden, why are his feet different?" Ananda replied, "Once upon a time, an old woman, mourning the Tathagata, came forward and patted the Buddha's feet with her hand. to shed tears on His feet, so it has a different color.” After hearing that, Kassapa was not happy again, so he went to the fire platform to pay respects to the Buddha's body. The four sets of them and the gods in the air also performed rituals at the same time. The Buddha's feet suddenly disappeared. The Great Kassapa went around the fire platform three times while praising, "I now bow my head to the Supreme Master, the unfathomable holy wisdom, the supremely high holy wisdom. Supreme Sa-Mon, Absolutely not blemished, Pure, not contaminated with love, Precious among human beings. I now bow my head to the Most Great Hero, There is no equal asceticism, Abandoning to save birth. Homage to the World-Honored One, Unstained by dirt; Greed, anger, and delusion are all clean; Rejoice in non-presidential happiness. Homage to the Blessed One, Unmatched, incomparable. Skillfully liberated the world, Chi-hon among heavens and men. Homage to An An An Tri, the Four Noble Truths, Tranquility, Unsurpassed among contemplatives, Turning evil to the right. Homage to the natural station, the place where the Blessed One passed away. No heat and impure brain, Body and mind are often quiet. Homage to the Immaculate One who removes all impurities, Unlimited wisdom eyes, Cam reveals a resounding voice. Homage to the Unsurpassed, Rare and inconceivable, The voice is like a lion, In the forest there is no fear. Ghost goods, beyond the four natures; So I respect. The great Kassapa, who had great virtue and had enough four eloquences, had just finished reading the above verse, when the ashram did not burn, but spontaneously ignited. The Maltese said to each other, "The fire is too strong to stop, lest all the relics will be consumed! Let's find somewhere to get water to quench it." At that time, there was a tree god, Song Long, standing by the pyre, who devoted himself to believing in Buddha, using his divine power to extinguish the fire. Again the Mahla said to each other, "Twelve yojanas around this town of Kosthi, how many fragrant flowers have been picked up, brought back to offer relics." Then they went to the two sides of the city to find fragrant flowers and bring them back as offerings to the relics. At that time, when the people of the Malla country of Baba heard of the Buddha's extinction at Song Tho, they thought to themselves: "I should go there to ask for the relics and build a stupa to make offerings in the country." The Mahla people of Baba immediately ordered to bring four types of troops, namely statue soldiers, horse soldiers, chariots, and infantrymen, went to the city of Go-thi and sent messengers saying: "We heard that the Buddha has passed away. here. Buddha is also our teacher. Out of respect for his grave, we came to ask for the relics to return to the country to build an offering tower." King Gossip replied: “Indeed, it is as you say. But because the World-Honored One came and passed away here. The people in my country take care of the offerings themselves. Troubled them from afar to seek relics. But that must be impossible!” At the same time, the Batly people of Gialapa, the Cauli people of the Lamai kingdom, the Brahmins of the Piludia kingdom, The people of the Sakya clans of the Kadu-lavites, the people of the Leza clans of the Vaishali kingdoms, and the kings of Asathes of the Makiet kingdom, heard the Tathagata's passing away at the Twin-Life tree in the city. Sentences, they all thought to themselves: "Now I should go there to share the relics." Asathe and the other kings gave orders in the country to bring four types of troops across the Ganges. King Asathe sent the Brahmin Huong Tanh: "You entered the city of Kosthi in my name to ask King Malla, is your daily life comfortable, if you are in good health, and tell me With the noble country, which has always respected each other, neighbors are peaceful, there has not been any dispute. Now I hear that the Tathagata has passed away in the precious country. For the World-Honored One, my heart is very reverent, so no matter how far away, I come to collect the remains, bring back the country and build an offering tower. If you accept, I will share some of the wealth in our country." The brahmin Huong Tanh obeyed, He went to the city of Kothi and said to the Malha people: "The great king of the country of Makati has many greetings. Are you gentle when walking? Is the walk healthy? And the message that, I and the noble country have always respected each other, neighbors are peaceful, there has not been any dispute. Now I hear that the Tathagata has passed away in the precious country. For the World-Honored One, my heart is very reverent, so no matter how far away, I come to collect the remains, bring back the country and build an offering tower. If you accept, I will share some of the wealth in our country." The Maltese replied, “Indeed! Exactly what he said. But because the Blessed One came and passed away here, the people in my country took care of their offerings. Troubled them from afar to beg for relics. But that must not be possible.” The kings immediately summoned their officials to make resolutions, chanting: We are at peace, Far away to bow, Humbly ask. As do not accept; Four soldiers are ready. Don't regret your life. Can't use meaning; All must use force. King Cau-thi also summoned his courtiers to set up a resolution to answer: Those who are far away, Humiliated, beg the Tathagata to leave the body; But not allowed. Kia wants to use troops. We are also available. Fight back to the end, Never fear. At that time, the brahmin Huong Tanh stood up to understand everyone's instructions: "The sages have been receiving the Buddha's teachings for a long time, chanting the Dharma with their mouths, wearing humanization in their hearts, often wishing that all sentient beings will be well. Is it possible that because of the Buddha's relics, they become harming each other? If the relics of the Tathagata are to be widely beneficial, the present relics should be divided into many parts." They are all commendable. They discussed again should ask someone who can help. Everyone said that the Brahmin Huong Tanh was a man of equal intelligence, divisible. The kings then sent Huong Tanh: "You should divide the relics into eight equal parts for us." Under the orders of the kings, Huong Tanh went to the place of the relics, bowed his head, and then slowly first picked up the Buddha's upper tooth and set it aside. Then tell the messenger to bring the Buddha's upper tooth to King Asathi, saying: "You will speak to the king in my name, saying: Great king, is your daily life comfortable? Is walking healthy? The relics have not come yet, surely the Great King looks very good? Now I entrust the Tathagata's upper tooth messenger to make offerings to satisfy the King's expectation. Tomorrow morning, when the morning star rises, the relics are divided, I will personally present them." At that time, the messenger obeyed, went to King Asathi, and said: "The brahmin Huong Tanh greets you with countless greetings: Great king, is your daily life comfortable? Is walking healthy? The relics have not come yet, surely the Great King looks very good? Now I entrust the Tathagata's upper tooth messenger to make offerings to satisfy the King's expectation. Tomorrow morning, when the morning star rises, the relics are divided, I will personally present them." Then Huong Tanh took a jar with a capacity of about one jelly, then divided the relics equally into eight parts, finished, he said to everyone: "You guys consulted me to ask for that vase to build a worship tower in my own house. .” Everyone said, “Wisdom. That is appropriate.” And they agreed to. At that time, someone from Tat Bat village also came to ask for the rest of the ashes to build an offering tower. Everyone agrees. After the people of the Cau-thi country received the relics, they erected an offering tower. After receiving the relics of the relics, the Baba, Gia-la, La-ma-ga, Bhikkhu, Kadu-lava, Visali, and Ma-kiet countries, after receiving relics, were brought back to their country to build. offering tower. The brahmin Huong Tanh brought the vase used to divide the relics to his house to build an offering tower. The people of Tatbat village brought the rest of the ashes to build the tower as offerings. Thus, Buddha's relics are divided into eight towers, the ninth tower is the vase, the tenth tower is the ash tower and the eleventh tower is the hair tower, worshiping Buddha's hair while in the world.
